---|---|---|
Aerobic exposure | Anaerobic exposure | |
Nonmucoid | 200 (0.43) | 1,600 (3.42) |
Mucoid | 800 (1.71) | 1,600 (3.42) |
Biofilms were exposed to tobramycin in PBS (pH 6.5) for 18 h under aerobic or anaerobic conditions. The MBEC18 h is reported as the concentration of COS-NO required for 5-log-unit reduction in biofilm viability.
