Abstract

The present study was done to evaluate the environmental factors responsible for the expression of Porphyromonas gingivalis heat shock protein. The intensity of the heat shock protein gene expression was comparable to those seen by the heat shock ptreatment of the bacteria (44 degrees C) when the bacteria was grown as a mixed culture or biofilm state at 37degrees C.
