Staphylococcus aureus colony counts on PVC and NanoR surfaces soaked in a 10 mM fructose solution. Biofilm formation decreased on NanoR and PVC surfaces soaked in a 10 mM fructose solution after 24 hours.
Notes: Data represent mean ± SEM, n = 4. *P < 0.05 NanoR soaked in a 10 mM fructose solution compared to the PVC control, #P < 0.1 NanoR compared to the PVC control.
Abbreviations: CFU, colony forming units; NanoR, nanorough; PVC, polyvinyl chloride; SEM, standard error of the mean.
