Fig 3. Viable species distribution within the 24 hour biofilms on titanium specimens in the flow chamber system.

Tukey box plots of biofilm content of viable species distribution in three independent biological replicates (1.–3.) containing three technical replicates (three chambers) each, after 24 h growth on titanium specimens in the flow chamber system. PMA-qRT-PCR was run in duplicate for each biofilm sample. Statistically equivalent results are indicated with “equ”.
