Depression of biofilm formation and antibiotic resistance by sarA disruption in Staphylococcus epidermidis

Figure 6 Response of RP62A (original) and RP62A△sarA (mutant) to two antibiotics in shaking tube cultures. The cultures of the wild type RP62A (W) and the mutant RP62A△sarA (K) were incubated in a shaking incubator (250 r/min) at 37°C for 24 h, and diluted in fresh TSB medium. Determination of optical density (OD) values was carried out at 570 nm.
