Influence of Sugar Type on the Pattern of Acid Production by Streptococcus mutans

A. SKINNER 1 and M. N. NAYLOR 1

1 Department of Periodontology and Preventive Dentistry, Guy's Hospital Medical and Dental Schools, London, SE 1, England

Acid was produced rapidly during incubation of Streptococcus mutans with monosaccharides glucose and fructose, and was delayed by one hour in the presence of sucrose. A significant degree of potentiation occurred when both glucose and fructose were present in the incubation medium. This could be because of a substrate-controlled transport mechanism in the cell membrane.
