Prevalence and Ecological Role of Streptococcus toyakuensis in Saliva of Healthy Young Individuals
The colonization of S. toyakuensis may influence the oral microbial ecosystem and metabolic activity, potentially facilitating the spread of AMR. Its detection in healthy individuals suggests a silent reservoir, underscoring the importance of oral microbiome surveillance in public health and infection control strategies.
