FIGURE 4

Effect on the biofilm growth of Staphylococcus aureus 240 (A,D), S. aureus MRSA4 (B,E), and Staphylococcus epidermidis strains (C,F), respectively, of the biofilm-detaching compounds ficin (F) (1,000, 100, 10 mg/L) and N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) (8, 2, 0.5 g/L), and the antibiotic dalbavancin (D) (32, 4, 0.5 mg/L) alone or in combination. (A), (B) and (C) graphs correspond to the induction or inhibition values observed at 10 h of biofilm formation shown as percentage relative to the control, while (D), (E) and (F) to 20 h of biofilm growth, respectively. On the X axis, zero corresponds to biofilm mass of antimicrobial-free controls at 10 and 20 h of biofilm growth on an xCELLigence 96-well plate.
