Role of Surface Fimbriae (Fibrils) in the Adsorption of Actinomyces Species to Saliva-Treated Hydroxyapatite Surfaces

We studied the adsorption, morphological, and serological characteristics of selected Actinomyces and related species. Evaluation of uranyl acetate-stained cells by electron microscopy revealed wide variations among strains in the frequency of surface fimbriae. These variations did not always correl...
