Clove Oil Modulates Biofilm-Associated Gene Expression in Oral Staphylococcus Aureus Compared with Tetracycline
Oral Staphylococcus aureus can persist through adhesion and biofilm-associated pathways, and antimicrobial exposure below the minimum inhibitory concentration may alter virulence-gene transcription without completely suppressing growth. This study evaluated the effects of commercial clove oil and tetracycline on the re...
