Abstract
The extracellular enzyme fructosyltransferase (FTF) is considered to be a significant virulence factor in the dental biofilm. We have developed a method using surface plasmon resonance to detect the activity of immobilized FTF in situ. This real time technique provides a sensitive direct assay for characterizing functional properties of immobilized enzymes such as FTF.
