Treatment of multi-species biofilms. Upper panel: Comparison of growth on Columbia Blood Agar plates after different treatment of implants placed in bovine cadaver bone. Lower panel: Quantitative comparison of growth on implants inserted in ribs depending on treatment protocols. (A) Mechanical debridement, (B) air abrasion, (C) BDD treatment for 0 min, (D) BDD treatment for 5 min, (E) BDD treatment for 10 min, (F) BDD treatment for 15 min (n = 3 for each methods and time point). Growth of implant roll-outs was rated from 0 (no growth) to 3 (strong growth). Columns represent the mean of 3 independent biological replicated ± standard deviation (SD).
