Three-day-old culture samples were incubated at 37°C after dilution (1:10) in prewarmed MRS medium supplemented or not with rifampin. Bacterial counts and luminescence determinations were conducted over 4 h postdilution. The results are presented as the means ± standard errors of the means. nd, not detected; ND, not done.
