Detection of Dps and J-Dps during the growth phase of S. enterica. Crude extracts of S. enterica (A: 25 μg and B: 5 μg each sample) from different growth periods were added (100 μl/well) to the wells of a microplate coated with jacalin (A) or rabbit antibody anti-Dps (B). Dps detection was performed, in both cases, with murine antibody anti-Dps. Results are the read average and standard deviation of triplicates, and are expressed as the absorbance at 492 nm. Sa, crude extract of Staphylococcus aureus; Ctrl, control with no added crude extract.
