Fig. 2 — Analysis of motility and biofilm phenotypes from A. baumannii strains isolated from blood samples. a Motility agar plates 24 h post-inoculation with A. baumannii clinical isolate strains. b Crystal violet stained A. baumannii biofilms in polystyrene tubes. c Quantitative analysis of bacterial motility as determined by measurement of diameter of bacterial cells present on the plate. Bars indicate mean values (+/− standard error mean error bars) with individual biological replicates indicated by discrete points (n=4). d Quantitative analysis of ratio of biofilm to biomass. Biofilm was determined by solubilization of crystal violet and spectrophotometric measurement at OD₅₆₀. Biomass was determined by spectrophotometric measurement at OD₆₀₀. Bars indicate mean values (+/− standard error mean error bars) with individual data points indicated by discrete points (n=3 biological replicates with 3–4 technical replicates per experiment)
