Abstract: Bacterial infection is the most common cause of parotid inflammation. In the past, most of the microbiology research of parotitis was focused on the bacterial culture of the pus from parotid suppurative infection. However, the microbiology of chronic parotitis has rarely been reported. With the development of detection technology, various types of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria have been found associated with parotitis. This paper describes the recent study of microbiology of parotitis and the application of molecular biology techniques in the study of oral microbes.

Key words: parotitis, bacteriology, bacteria detection, 16s rRNA
