Eight cariogenic strains of Streptococcus mutans and one cariogenic strain of Streptococcus salivarius lysed after exposure to ultraviolet light, mitomycin, nitrosoguanidine, and streptomycin. Each of these strains released a virus with a similar morphology after ultraviolet light and mitomycin induction. Neither lysis nor a virus was demonstrated in several noncariogenic strains of streptococci.
