Comparison of the modulatory effects of three structurally similar potential prebiotic substrates on an in vitro multi-species oral biofilm

Abstract Previous research identified potential prebiotic substrates for oral health like the structural analogues N-acetyl-d-mannosamine (NADM) and N-acetyl-d-glucosamine (NADG). The main hypothesis of the current study was twofold. Firstly, it was hypothesized that the modulatory effects of NADM a...
