Fig 3. Antimicrobial efficacy of CAP towards E. faecalis biofilms cultured for 24 h.
CAP was performed for different treatment periods towards biofilms cultured for 24 h. All results are depicted as medians, 1st and 3rd quartiles from six independent experiments in duplicates on a log10-scaled ordinate. Bars show the reductions of CFU in a log10 scale in comparison to untreated controls. Solid and dashed lines exhibit 3 log10 steps (99.9%) or 5 log10 reduction (99.999%) of CFU, respectively. (n = 6; untreated controls exhibited 7.3 x 1010 CFU in median).
