| Strain | % of antibiotic-resistant colonies at:
|
|
|---|---|---|
| 50 generations | 100 generations | |
| B31-A + DCSPR3 | 41 ± 4.4a (DCSPR3) | 18 ± 4.4b (DCSPR3) |
| B31-A + DCSPR6 | 41 ± 2.1a (DCSPR6) | 8 ± 3.1b (DCSPR6) |
| B31-A + DCSmR4 | 6.0 ± 2.0c (DCSmR4) | 0 ± 0c (DCSmR4) |
| B31-A + DCKAN3 | 0.75 ± 0.25c (DCKAN3) | 0 ± 0c (DCKAN3) |
a
Values are means ± standard errors of the means for three independent experiments.
b
Values are means ± standard errors of the means for four independent experiments.
c
Values are means ± standard errors of the means for five independent experiments.
