Acetaldehyde, the first metabolite of alcohol, has been proposed to be the carcinogenic substance behind ethanol-related oral cancers. High levels of acetaldehyde are formed from ethanol in saliva by the oral flora, but so far the role of certain microbial species responsible for this phenomenon is not known. Yeasts are common commensals of the oral cavity that have alcohol-oxidizing enzymes, thus providing a potential source of acetaldehyde from ethanol. The aim of this study was to examine the contribution of oral yeasts to the production of ethanol-derived acetaldehyde in the oral cavity.
