Abstract
Porphyromon as endodontalis, a gram-negative anaerobic rod, is an important pathogenic organism in periapical lesionis with acute symptoms, such as pain, swelling, and suppuration in endodontic patient. Like P. gingivalis, a major pathogen of adult periodontitis, P. endodontalis is asaccharolytic and forms black-pigmented colonies on enriched blood agar plates. However, the pathogenic factors and the pathological potential of this microbe have been poorly characterized.(omitted)
