FIG 1 — S. aureus penetrates lipid-depleted SC in drip chamber setup. Fluorescent confocal cross-sectional profiles of S. aureus permeation into a control (A and C) and delipidated (B and D) SC sample over a 5-day period. Images show representative fluorescent cross-sectional profiles of BODIPY lipid-stained SC (red) inoculated with GFP-labeled S. aureus bacteria (green) after (A and B) 0 and (C and D) 4 days. An identical contrast change has been imposed on all images in each lipid condition to enhance visual clarity. Scale bar, 15 μm.
