a. The planktonic cells of S. epidermidis RP62A and Aap were stained by SYTO9 and Cy3, respectively. After obtaining the fluorescence photomicrographs under a CLSM (Figure 6), the fluorescence quantities of SYTO9-stained cells and Cy3-stained Aap were determined using ImageJ program.
b. “SYTO9” stands for the fluorescence quantities of SYTO9-stained cells.
c. “Cy3” stands for the fluorescence quantities of Cy3-stained Aap.
d. “Cy3/SYTO9” represents the proportion of Aap in the cells.
