Figure 1. Biofilms hybridized with EUB338 and species-specific probes SMIT, SSAN, SORA2, SDOW or ANAES.

Figure 1

EUB338 was labelled with Atto633 (red), species-specific probes were labelled with Cy3 (green). A. Biofilms were dominated by S. mitis SK24. B. Colonies of S. sanguinis SK150, shown in close colocalization with other streptococcal species. C. Cells of A. naeslundii AK6 formed branched spider-like colonies in basal layers of the biofilms. D. Small groups of S. oralis SK248 cells were scattered over the biofilm. E. Cells of S. downei HG594 appeared in particularly long chains intertwined with clusters of other streptococcal cells. Bars = 20 µm.
