Figure 3. Oxylipins induce biofilm formation in P. aeruginosa.

Figure 3

(a) Quantitation of the oleic acid effect on biofilm formation by the WT and ΔDS strains. Oleic acid induced a threefold increase in biofilm formation by WT compared to ΔDS. (b) Quantitative effect of 10-HOME and 7,10-DiHOME on biofilm formation by PAO1. 10-HOME showed a stronger effect than 7,10-DiHOME. (c) As expected, the effect of oxylipins on ΔDS biofilm formation was similar. Means and s.d. are from at least three independent experiments.
