Figure 5.
Adhesion and growth of bacteria on cotton and rGO/Cu fabric: (A) E. coli, (B) P. aeruginosa, (C) S. epidermidis, (D) C. xerosis, and (E) M. luteus. Fabrics were thoroughly aerated and re-oxidized. The bacteria attached to the fabrics were counted in terms of the CFU to check the concentration of bacteria (CFU/mL). The data are presented as mean ± SD (n = 3). The adhesion was confirmed by staining the bacteria attached to each fabric. The scale bar represents 100 μm.
