Generation of Bioluminescent Streptococcus mutans and Its Usage in Rapid Analysis of the Efficacy of Antimicrobial Compounds
The oral bacterium Streptococcus mutans was transformed by electroporation with a shuttle vector (pCSS945) containing insect luciferase gene from a click beetle (Pyrophorus plagiophthalamus) resulting in a bioluminescent phenotype. This S. mutans strain was used in experiments in which light emissio...
