Fig. 1 — Antibacterial and hydrophobicity characterization. a Structures of the Meta and Para. b Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) results showed nearly a tenfold difference in potency across several clinically relevant bacterial strains. Error bars represent the range of the MIC observed. (n = 3 biological replicates each with n = 2 technical replicates shown). See Supporting Information for MIC definition (Supplementary Figure 1). MRSA is methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and VRE is vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus. Significant difference in potency: p < 0.0001, 0.0002, 0.0005, and 0.0021 paired t-test, two-tailed, df = 5 for all, B. subtilis, MRSA, S. epidermidis, and VRE, respectively. c Reverse-phase HPLC-MS chromatogram of the extracted product mass (EIC) of the Meta and Para demonstrated the same retention and hydrophobicity
