Table 2.

Susceptibility to colistin and lysozyme, and the combined treatment (lysozyme + colistin) of two strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PAO1 and PA14).

Strain Colistin MIC (μg/mL) Percentage of Bacterial Survival after Each Treatment a
Colistin (0.1 μg/mL) Lysozyme (25 μg/mL) Lysozyme + Colistin (25 + 0.1 μg/mL)
PAO1 0.75 45.3 ± 11.2 35.9 ± 8.0 4.1 ± 1.3
PA14 0.25 19.1 ± 3.9 52.3 ± 10.2 3.0 ± 0.62

a Percentage of survival after each treatment in respect to the initial inoculum. PAO1 and PA14 survival percentages in the lysozyme assay buffer alone were between 80–90% after incubation.
