Lp exposed to water is more resistant to antibiotics. CFU changes of Lp cultured in AYE broth or exposed to Fraquil at 25 or 37 °C after antibiotic treatments. The antibiotics used include ampicillin, erythromycin, gentamycin and kanamycin, all at 100 μg/ml. 5X indicates a five times concentration of erythromycin and gentamycin (500 μg/ml) were used as well. The data are expressed as the log transformation of CFUs in treated wells (CFUT) divided by the CFUs in the control wells without antibiotics (CFUC). A negative value indicates a CFU reduction upon treatment. Data shows the mean +/− SD of three biological replicates. Different letters on the bars indicate significant differences between different samples in a particular treatment according to Tukey's test (p < 0.05). CFU changes between different treatments were not compared
