Biofilm and dental biomaterials
Øilo, Marit; Bakken, Vidar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-05-26)All treatment involving the use of biomaterials in the body can affect the host in positive or negative ways. The microbiological environment in the oral cavity is affected by the composition and shape of the biomaterials ... -
Characterization of extracellular polymeric matrix, and treatment of Fusobacterium nucleatum and Porphyromonas gingivalis biofilms with DNase I and proteinase K
Mohammed, Marwan; Nerland, Audun Helge; Al-Haroni, Mohammed; Bakken, Vidar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-01-29)Background : Biofilms are organized communities of microorganisms embedded in a self-produced extracellular polymeric matrix (EPM), often with great phylogenetic variety. Bacteria in the subgingival biofilm are key factors ... -
In vitro reconstruction of human junctional and sulcular epithelium
Dabija-Wolter, Gabriela; Bakken, Vidar; Cimpan, Mihaela R.; Johannessen, Anne Christine; Costea, Daniela Elena (Journal article, 2012)Background: The aim of this study was to develop and characterize standardized in vitro three-dimensional organotypic models of human junctional epithelium (JE) and sulcular epithelium (SE). Methods Organotypic models were ... -
Label-free quantitative proteomic analysis of the oral bacteria Fusobacterium nucleatum and Porphyromonas gingivalis to identify protein features relevant in biofilm formation
Mohammed, Marwan; Pettersen, Veronika K.; Nerland, Audun Helge; Wiker, Harald Gotten; Bakken, Vidar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background The opportunistic pathogens Fusobacterium nucleatum and Porphyromonas gingivalis are Gram-negative bacteria associated with oral biofilm and periodontal disease. This study investigated interactions between F. ... -
Putative periodontopathic bacteria and herpes viruses interactions in the subgingival plaque of patients with aggressive periodontitis and healthy controls
Elamin, Amal Mohammed H; Ali, Raouf Wahab; Bakken, Vidar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-10)The microbial profile of aggressive periodontitis patients is considered to be complex with variations among populations in different geographical areas. The aim of this study was to assess the presences of 4 putative ...
