The Effects of Egg-Derived Antibodies to Glucosyltransferases on Dental Caries in Rats

The role of Streptococcus mutans in the development of dental caries is well recognized. Important virulence factors include the glucosyltransferases (gtf), essential for production of glucans. We evaluated the anticariogenic effects of orally administered chicken anti-cell-associated (CA) Gtf antib...
