Abstract
Twenty-five oral Haemophilus isolates and five strains of Actinobacill us actinomycetemcomitans were screened against each other as both prod ucers and indicators of bacteriocin-like activity. Despite examining a total of 900 strain-to-strain interactions, under a variety of incuba tion conditions, no isolates displayed any indication of bacteriocin-l ike activity.
