It is known that the human mouth is constantly exposed to
viruses. The aim of this article is to determine the probable correlation of
viruses in the human mouth and the surrounding environment; during the study 21
persons were the subjects; 11 from different houses and 10 unconnected
subjects. Saliva examination and CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short
Palindromic Repeat) loci were conducted. Streptococcus,
Gemella and Leptrotrichia
were found in individuals that were sharing their living environment, this data
suggests that the environment has a big impact on the human mouth bacteria and
virus community. Although further studies must follow; this information provides
enough data to support the importance of ecology in human health and wellness.
