Microcosm biofilms cultured from different oral niches in periodontitis patients

Abstract: Objective: Periodontal diseases are triggered by dysbiotic microbial biofilms. Therefore, it is essential to develop appropriate biofilm models. Aim of the present study was to culture microcosm biofilms inoculated from different niches in periodontitis patients and compare their microbial composition to those inoculated from subgingival plaque.Methods: Saliva, subgingival plaque, tongue and tonsils were sampled in five periodontitis patients to serve as inocula for culturing biofilms in vitro in an active att… Show more

“…The AAA model offers the advantage of active attachment (rather than sedimentation) of the bacteria onto the substrate, and also facilitates controlling the periods which the biofilms are exposed to the tested compounds [34]. Choice of inoculum and growth conditions are crucial aspects for microcosm biofilms [40,[42][43][44][45]. In the present study, human saliva was chosen as inoculum source because it can be collected easier and in higher quantities as compared with dental plaque [40].…”

“…Furthermore, we could recently show that the choice of inoculum donors may be more important than the choice of the respective niche in those donors (e.g., saliva, subgingival plaque, or tongue scrapings) [40]. In contrast to this previous study, which aimed to mimic periodontitis-associated microbial communities [40], we chose to sample from one healthy donor here for growing biofilms that resemble microbial communities in a rather early stage of dysbiosis. Sampling from only one donor may be a drawback and potentially has an influence on the results because there may be donor-dependent effects with regard to the antimicrobial susceptibility of the biofilms, as it was recently shown by Chatzigiannidou et al for microcosm biofilms from tongue swabs and treatment with CHX [45].…”

“…Some studies have attempted to construct in vitro models of multispecies or mixed‐species biofilms with various bacteria, or to extract biofilms from specific parts of the human or animal mouth for in vitro culture, but there are limitations to these studies. A multispecies model simply mixes a variety of bacteria together, but the arrangement is not orderly .…”
