Effect of MDE treatment on the mechanical stability of S. mutans-C. albicans biofilms. (A) Schematic diagram of shear-induced biofilm mechanical strength tester. (B) Remaining biofilm biomass before and after applying shear stress of 0.18 N/m2 for 10 min. (C) Representative confocal images of biofilms after shearing. Scale bar indicates 20 μm. Statistics: *** represents P < 0.001 for unpaired t tests against the intact biofilms (n ≥ 3).
