Values are shown as means (standard errors of the means).

b

Recombinant hemagglutinin B (rHagB) adhesin of P. gingivalis strain 381.

c

Recombinant fimbrillin A (rFimA) adhesin of P. gingivalis strain 381.

d

The kinetic association (Ka) and dissociation (Kd) rate constants and the equilibrium dissociation constant (KD) are derived from the binding curves in the SPR sensorgrams (Fig. 1 and 2).
