FIG 2.

Effect of cell-derived FN on bacterial adherence of A. baumannii. (A) Percentage of bacterial adherence to A549 cell lines in the presence of different concentrations of anti-FN antibody. The bacterial adhesion is expressed as a percentage of that observed in the absence of anti-FN antibody (control). (B) Image of a petri plate showing CFU count for adhered bacteria of the A549 cell line in the presence of a different concentration of anti-FN antibody. All reported values in panel A are mean values of three experiments ± the SD, and statistical significance was identified using GraphPad Prism software.
