Figure 8. Test in Terrific Broth.
3D printed parts from UC Davis with and without UV treatment (B and C) were suspended in sterile Terrific Broth supplemented with potassium salts, along with a negative control (A) and a positive control (D). After 24 h at 37 °C, no growth was observed for parts treated with UV. Tube (F) contains a part from Michigan State after 48 h of incubation in Terrific Broth, along with negative and positive controls (E and G). No growth was observed 96 hours after inoculation.
