8).The amount of the targeted microorganisms(Streptococcus mutans,Streptococcus sobrinus,Actinomyces viscosus and Actinomyces naeslundii) and the total number of bacterial cells were determined by real-time PCR based on SYBR-Green I fluorescence.Results The percentages of the four targeted bacteria in high-caries group were significantly higher than those in caries-free group(P
