Figure 2. Affinity of M. brumae for the different tested compounds and CFU counts in each emulsion.

Figure 2

(a) The hydrophobicity index was calculated from the means ± SEMs of the absorbance values from triplicate preparations of two different experiments. *p < 0.01 versus OO; &p < 0.01 versus MO (Mann-Whitney U test). (b) CFU of M. brumae in the different emulsions or in PBS-Tween (Non-E). Values are expressed as the mean ± SEM from bacterial culture triplicates of at least three independent experiments. *p < 0.05, versus OO-emulsified M. brumae; &p < 0.05 versus MO-emulsified M. brumae (Mann-Whitney U test). OO, olive-oil; SO, soybean oil; SE, squalene; MO, mineral oil; nH, n-hexadecane; Non-E, mycobacteria in PBS-Tween.
