Figure 1. Biofilm formation in milk and milk alternatives.

Figure 1

S. mutans was grown in 96-well polystyrene plates in milk beverages for 24 h and biofilms were assessed by crystal violet staining. Data presented are results from biofilms grown in milk alone. Similar results were also obtained with milks diluted by 1:2 ratio with sterile deionized water (Data not shown). Data represent averages (±SD in error bars, N=9) of three sets of separate experiments. *#, P<0.001 vs all others; ##P<0.001 vs AO, <0.05 vs other almonds except SO; ** P<0.05 vs SO and SU, <0.01 vs VAN and CHOC, <0.001 vs AO.
