Mucin enhances PAO1 twitching motility. (A) PAO1 was stab-inoculated onto either LB (left) or LBM (right) twitching plates (1 % agar). The plates were incubated at 37 °C for 48 h then at 23°C for an additional 48 h. The agar was removed and the twitching zone revealed by staining with crystal violet. Images shown are representative of three independent experiments. (B) Graphic comparison of twitching zone diameters for PAO1 in LB and LBM broths; values represent the means of 3 independent experiments ± SEM; ***P<0.001.
