Results

Salivary IgA concentration and IgA concentration per mg of protein (IgA/Pro) after intake period were not significantly different between groups. In the subgroup analyses, except for subjects with probable infections, the change in IgA/Pro was significantly higher in the bifidobacteria intake group.
Plaque index after intake period was significantly lower in the bifidobacteria intake group.
