Effect of cysteine on M. penetrans hemolytic activity
| Cysteine concn (mM) | Hemolytic activitya |
|---|---|
| 0 | 2.98 ± 0.09 |
| 0.5 | 3.09 ± 0.18 |
| 1.0 | 3.09 ± 0.18 |
| 3.0 | 16.47 ± 0.85 |
| 6.0 | 34.03 ± 1.04 |
| 12.0 | 9.01 ± 1.80 |
Assayed using intact mycoplasma cells. Hemolytic activity was assayed as described in Materials and Methods. Values represent the means ± standard deviations of three independent determinations at each cysteine concentration.
