4. Misidentification of strains
5. Low sensitivity
bacteria
Why molecular methods
Each site and tissue fluid has its specific environment of host factors
This study highlighted again the pivotal role of PMNs in the breakdown of the pulp.
Nakanishi et al ----- IgG, IgA, IgM, elastase, and especially
prostaglandin E2,
4. Detection of hybridization
1. Production and labeling of single-stranded probe nucleic acid
2 types
Socransky et al in 1994
hybridizing large no of DNA samples against large numbers of
digoxigenin-labeled whole genomic DNA on a single support membrane
After hybridization, the membranes are washed --- DNA probes detected using
antibody to digoxigenin conjugated with ALP and chemifluorescence detection.
The intensity of the spot is proportional to the amount of DNA from the target
species
A modification of the checkerboard method --- Paster et al. (1998)
In this assay, the probe rather than the sample is fixed first to the
membrane
— reverse-capture checkerboard.
DNA Microarrays -- Schena et al in 1995
Adv :
Occurs at (94-950 C)
2. Primer annealing
Occurs a 72 C
the variable regions of the 16S rRNA gene to design primers specific
for bacterial species.
Multiplex PCR
more than one unique target sequence -- amplified at the same time,
The first PCR products are used as template in the second round of
amplification with a separate primer set
2nd step,
PCR primers, DNA polymerase, and nucleotides are added to create
the second strand of cDNA.
Real time PCR combines rapid thermocycling with the ability to detect
target by fluorescently labeled probes as the hybrids are formed
The TaqMan probe contains a reporter fluorescent dye at the 5’ end and a
quencher dye at the 3’ end
The conformational change forces the fluorescent dye and the quencher
apart --- fluorescence (Mhlanga and Malmberg 2001)
SYBR Green
-----(Terminal fragments)
These fragments are separated on
high resolution sequencing gels in an
automated DNA sequencer
SEQUENCING

PYROSEQUENCING
Method of DNA sequencing that relies on the detection
of pyrophosphate release on nucleotide incorporation.

ADVANTAGES OF MOLECULAR METHODS
High sensitivity

Limitations of PCR- derived technologies
On the other hand, if the bacteria were already dead in the infected site

Other taxa----
Selenomonas

Fusobacterium
Eubacterium
Bifidobacterium
(Chhour et al. 2005)

Periodontal diseases
Periodontal diseases result from the subgingival presence
of complex bacterial biofilms
Filifactor alocis,
Prevotella denticola,
Cryptobacterium curtum,
Eubacterium saphenum,
Selenomonas sputigena
(Doan et al. 2000; Paster et al. 2001; Kumar et al. 2003, 2005). 79
Microbiota in root canal–treated teeth
E. faecalis --- prevalence 90% of the cases --- Williams et al. 2006
Molecular analyses of extraradicular Infection
Fusobacterium nucleatum,
Peptococcus micros,
Actinomyces israelii, Actinomyces viscosus,
Campylobacter rectus,
P. gingivalis,
Tannerella forsythia,
Treponema socranskii ssp. socranskii,
