Glycogen is a polymer used by bacteria to store excess glucose, playing crucial role in bacterial growth, stress resistance, biofilm formation, and virulence. In bacteria, the glycoside hydrolase family 13 protein are involved synthesis metabolism of glycogen, respectively. The absence these enzymes leads changes glycogen content, thereby affecting growth strain. To date, research on roles glycogen-related genes phenotypes

The aim of this study was to evaluate the antibacterial effects Paeonia lactiflora (PL) extract on oral microcosm biofilms and determine its usefulness as a natural alternative current antimicrobial agents. Oral were cultivated hydroxyapatite disks using human saliva for 2 days, following which they treated with 1.5 mL distilled water (DW), 30 μg/mL PL extract, or 0.12% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX) once daily 3 days. Antibacterial assessed by measuring red fluorescence intensity (RatioR/G), bacterial viability (RatioG/G+R), aciduric counts. RatioR/G evaluated quantitative light-induced digital imaging. RatioG/G+R in group 0.94-fold 0.73-fold lower than those DW (p < 0.001 p = 0.011, respectively) comparable CHX 0.356 0.964, respectively). Aciduric counts 0.97-fold 0.001), no significant difference from 0.892). Thus, effect that CHX; suggests potential managing biofilm-associated diseases.
