Figure 1. Effect of conditioned media on cell proliferation.

Figure 1

BCM and PCM were tested for their effect on cell proliferation using hTMks (a) and hEKs (b). For hEKs the BCM was diluted further to 5% due to high levels of cell death. Additionally, compared to the TSB media control, PCM from S. aureus significantly reduced proliferation (p = 0.0025) in hEKs, but PCM from P. aeruginosa did not (p = 0.7). However, the BCM of both bacterial species significantly reduced proliferation (indicated by *) in both cell types. Error bars are standard deviation of the mean with n = 4. Control is cell culture media only.
