Abstract

Analyse permettant de repérer une bactérie présente dans la bouche, de préférence Streptococcus mutans, idéalement des sérovars c, e et f. On recueille un échantillon dont on soupçonne qu'il contient une bactérie de la bouche recherchée (cible), on immobilise toute bactérie de la bouche présente sur un substrat non inactif, on met cet échantillon en présence d'un anticorps, soit un anticorps polyclonal (antisérums animaux absorbés), soit un anticorps monoclonal, spécifique à la bactérie de la bouche recherchée (cible); on met cet anticorps en présence d'un marqueur pouvant être détecté, ce qui permet de mettre en évidence la présence de l'anticorps, de repérer le marqueur et de déterminer ainsi la présence de Streptococcus mutans dans le milieu. Le dispositif permettant d'effectuer ces analyses est un cadre ou un support contenant un matériau non interactif capable de lier les antigènes recherchés (cibles) tout en permettant l'évacuation des fluides.
