Fig 3. SEM micrographs of established E. faecalis biofilms.

Biofilms were first grown for 3 to 7 days and then treated with MMP1. (a) Vancomycin susceptible strain FA2-2 and (b) Vancomycin resistant strain V583. In comparison to the control experiments, active MMP1 led to disruption of biofilms resulting in more empty spaces without any bacteria.
