Enzymatic inhibition and disruption of biofilm formation in A. baumannii. (A) Inhibition assay, performed by adding DNase I at 0 h, allowing cultures to form biofilms for 24 h in the presence and absence of DNase I and performing quantification with CV. (B) Planktonic growth analysis conducted at 24 h during the biofilm inhibition. (C) and (D) Quantification of the biofilm after disruption of biofilm formation using DNase I and Proteinase K, respectively. **** p < 0.0001 and ns = no significant, determined using three independent cultures.
