Identification of Actinomyces and Related Bacteria in Dental Calculus by the Fluorescent Antibody Technique

JOHN M. SLACK 1, SANDRA LANDFRIED 1, and MARY ANN GERENCSER 1

1 Department of Microbiology, West Virginia University Medical Center, Morgantown, West Virginia 26506, USA

Calculus specimens were examined by direct fluorescent antibody techniques and cultural procedures for the presence of gram-positive filamentous or diphtheroid bacteria. Actinomyces israelii, A viscosus, A naeslundii, Arachnia propionica, Rothia dentocariosa, Bacterionema matruchotii, and Corynebacterium acnes were observed in and cultured from the majority of specimens, with more than one species present in every specimen.
