Fig 5. Quantification of P85-formulated farnesol effects on pre-formed S. mutans biofilm architecture.

Fig 5

Biofilms described in Fig 4 (8 random fields of view acquired from 2 biological replicates) were analyzed with COMSTAT software [34] to quantify CLSM z-stack images for biomass (A) and roughness co-efficient (B). The average CFU/ml (n = 3 biological replicates) of biofilms grown in the presence of each condition was also determined in a parallel experiment (C). Error bars = SEM. *Indicates statistical significance compared to untreated control •Denotes statistically-significant difference compared to farnesol-treated condition (p < 0.05; SNK test).
