Role of eDNA on the adhesion forces between Streptococcus mutans and substratum surfaces : influence of ionic strength and substratum hydrophobicity

The aim of this study was to investigate the role of extracellular DNA (eDNA) on the adhesion strength of Streptococcus mutans LT11 on substrata with different hydrophobicities at high and low ionic strengths. AFM adhesion forces to a hydrophilic and hydrophobic substratum increased with increasing...

520 |a The aim of this study was to investigate the role of extracellular DNA (eDNA) on the adhesion strength of Streptococcus mutans LT11 on substrata with different hydrophobicities at high and low ionic strengths. AFM adhesion forces to a hydrophilic and hydrophobic substratum increased with increasing surface-delay times and ionic strength and were stronger on a hydrophobic than on a hydrophilic substratum. The presence of eDNA on the streptococcal cell surface enhanced its adhesion force to a hydrophobic substratum significantly more than to a hydrophilic substratum, especially after bond maturation. Bond maturation on a hydrophilic substratum was accompanied by an increasing number of minor adhesion peaks, indicating the involvement of acid-base interactions, whereas on the hydrophobic substratum surface the number of minor adhesion peaks remained low. More minor adhesion peaks developed on the hydrophilic substratum at low ionic strength than at high ionic strength. The final rupture distance in retraction force-distance curves was independent of ionic strength on a hydrophilic substratum and increased with increasing surface delay time. On the hydrophobic surface, the final rupture distance did not increase with surface delay time but was significantly smaller at low than at high ionic strength. Final rupture distances were different in presence and absence of eDNA, and the lower values of this difference coincided with the decrease in hydrodynamic radius of the streptococci upon increasing ionic strength, measured using dynamic light scattering. AFM also yielded higher values for the ionic strength induced difference in final rupture distance because in AFM rupture is forced, while in dynamic light scattering differences in radius are only induced by ionic strength differences
