Heterogeneity of Streptococcus mutans strains based on their mannitol-1-phosphate dehydrogenases: criterion for rapid classification.
Hexitol phosphate dehydrogenases were inducible in all strains of Streptococcus mutans studied, and these organisms could be placed into one of four groups according to the electrophoretic mobility of their mannitol-1-phosphate dehydrogenases.
