Growth inhibition of Streptococcus mutans strain OMZ 176 by xylitol
Acta Pathol Microbiol Scand B.
1980 Feb.
Abstract
The present study showed that xylitol exhibited a dose-related inhibition of the growth of Streptococcus mutans in a Brain Heart Infusion medium. It is suggested that the mechanism involved may be an effect of the translocation of glucose across the bacterial cell membrane. Sorbitol showed no similar effect but caused a delay in the reaching of the stationary phase.
