Antibacterial activity of hydrogel films against S. aureus growth.

Test Sample	Diameter of Inhibition Zone (mm)
10% Iodine solution F-Glu-Ca-G30-PI F-Glu-Ca-G30	99.23 ± 0.71 a 22.06 ± 3.44 b ND c
DMSO	ND c

Reported diameter of inhibition zone was derived from one of three experiments yielding similar readings. Means with the different letter, e.g., “a”, “b”, or “c” are statistically different at p-value < 0.05. ND indicates that the inhibition zone was not detected. Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post-hoc test for multiple comparisons.
