Presence of S. parasanguinis reduces sucrose utilization by S. mutans (A) Heatmap of carbohydrate metabolites (Value is median normalized) (B) Sucrose assay of single-, dual-, and tri-species cultures. Sp: S. parasanguinis; Sm: S. mutans; Ca: C. albicans. Metabolomics data were collected for 5 replicates in each group. ns = not significant; **P = 0.0096; ****P < 0.0001. All cultures were grown in tryptic soy broth containing 0.5% yeast extract (TSBYE) and 1% sucrose for 16 h at 37 °C with 5% CO2.
