Zones of stunted growth of S. aureus 124 (1) and P. aeruginosa 18 (2) using the disk diffusion test with the antibiotic meropenem (A), as well as fabric with a 3 μm thick copper layer applied (B). The average values from 3 to 5 experiments and their standard errors are presented. ∗ - differences between antibiotic and fabric for variants are significant with P < 0.05.
