CORE--MICROBIOLOGY

微生物学核心将为与差距相关的多个项目提供微生物学服务。微生物学核心的目标是提供有效的服务，以优化资源和协助合作活动。该设施的设计将考虑到当前和未来的需求，并利用现有资源，在这些资源的基础上发展该地区最先进的设施。微生物学核心将在差异中心的研究项目中培养和促进复杂的微生物学方法的结合。微生物学设施将负责从临床口腔样本中培养、鉴定和枚举变形链球菌。他们将从木糖醇敏感性的临床口腔样本中使用多种测定方法来表征临床变形链球菌。微生物学设施还将编目、分离、储存来自不同种群的临床样本和细菌，并为所产生的信息维护一个数据库。

The Microbiology Core will essential Microbiology services for multiple, projects associated with the Disparity. The aim for the Microbiology Core is to provide efficient service to optimize resources and aid collaborative activities. The facility will be designed with consideration for both immediate and future needs and takes advantage of existing resources and build on these for development of state-of-the- art facilities in the area. The Microbiology Core will foster and promote the incorporation of sophisticated microbiological methodology in the disparity Center research projects. The Microbiology facility will be responsible for culture, identification and enumeration of S. mutans from clinical oral samples. They will characterize the clinical S. mutans from clinical oral samples of xylitol susceptibility using multiple assays. The Microbiology facility will also catalog, isolates, store clinical samples and bacteria from the various populations and maintain a database for the information generated.
