Creating an interest in exercise.

The problem is not in creating interest but rather to utilize and develop the natural interest in exercise, which exists in every person. The goal should be to educate/stimulate young individuals to self-activation. Each person has several needs, some of which can be satisfied by play, sports and outdoor activities. This is true for the need of body movements, excitement, asserting oneself (to be accepted as "good" at something), communication with right to co-determination and development. Activities should be adjusted to those who are involved. The interaction in the group stimulates. The more each individual can be active in interaction, the better will be the foundations for the individual's future physically, psychologically and socially. This in turn will stimulate to further physical activity in harmony with age and personal ability.

Genetic relatedness between oral and intestinal isolates of Porphyromonas endodontalis by analysis of random amplified polymorphic DNA.

Genomic fingerprints from the DNA of 27 strains of Porphyromonas endodontalis from diverse clinical and geographic origins were generated as random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) using the technique of PCR amplification with a single primer of arbitrary sequence. Cluster analysis of the combined RAPD data obtained with three selected 9- or 10-mer-long primers identified 25 distinct RAPD types which clustered as three main groups identifying three genogroups. Genogroups I and II included exclusively P. endodontalis isolates of oral origin, while 7/9 human intestinal strains of genogroup III which linked at a similarity level of 52% constituted the most homogeneous group in our study. Genotypic diversity within P. endodontalis, as shown by RAPD analysis, suggests that the taxon is composed of two oral genogroups and one intestinal genogroup. This hypothesis remains to be confirmed.
