Figure 9. SEM images of differently functionalized Ti substrates after exposure to S. aureus suspension (107 cfu/ml) in PBS for 8 h.

Figure 9

(A) Pristine Ti; (B) DA-Ti; (C) PLL/Hep-Ti; (D) CH-Ti; (E) CH-MTX-Ti. (F) The number of S. aureus (cfu) in culture normalized to the area of the substrates after the bacterial cell culture was interacted with various Ti substrates for 24 h. ** denotes significant differences compared to substrates modified with CH-MTX-Ti group. The error bars represent the standard deviations calculated from three independent experiments.
