ABSTRACT
In order to assess the colonization efficacy of the oral probiotic Streptococcus salivarius K12, a rapid method for specific detection and enumeration of the strain was developed. Here, we describe a two-step TaqMan™ quantitative PCR assay using primer-probe combinations targeting genes of the locus encoding the lantibiotic bacteriocin salivaricin B.
