Figure 3 Staphylococcus aureus polymerase chain reaction results with and without flucloxacillin treatment in whole blood.
Both 16S and tuf DNA levels remain relatively stable in time in presence and absence of flucloxacillin. 16S rRNA and tuf mRNA show an increase in Ct values (reduction in RNA level). Tuf mRNA was not detectable on day 6. Ct values and CFU/mL (plate counts) are depicted.
