Figure 5

Representative SEM and TEM micrographs of the experimental groups. SEM micrographs of E. coli at different magnifications in the control and D-TN6 groups. Craters and burst cells (arrow) were observed in the D-TN6 group. Scales showing (A) 10 µm, (B,G,H) 5 µm, (C,D,I,J) 1 µm, and (E,F,K,L) 500 nm. TEM micrographs of E. coli at different magnifications in the control and D-TN6 groups. Numerous bubble-like protrusions from the cell surface (arrow), damaged cells (asterisk), and degenerated cell walls (arrowhead) were observed in the D-TN6 group. Scale bar: (M,O,R) 1 µm, (N,S,T) 500 nm, and (P,U) 200 nm.
