Figure 5. Adhesion capability after 0.5 h to an inert surface of oxygen-acclimated cells and oxidative-stressed cells of C. jejuni 81–176.

Figure 5

19% O2: oxygen-acclimated cells, (PQ) oxidative- stressed cells mediated by paraquat, (T) control without oxidizing agents (microaerobic conditions). Bacterial initial concentration was 8.81±0.05 Log(CFU/mL) for oxygen-acclimated cells, 8.20±0.11 Log(CFU/mL) for PQ-stressed cells and 8.85±0.05 Log(CFU/mL) for the control. Error bars represent the standard deviation of three independent assays. Asterisks indicate significant differences (P<0.05) in comparison with the control.
