Antibacterial activity of recombinant MLP protein. Bacteriostatic assay using purified MLP protein (1, 10 and 50 µg ml−1) compared with no treatment (NT) and buffer only (TBS) in the presence of (a) S. aureus and (b) E. faecalis. The orange curves in both (a) and (b) are for the positive control bacitracin. Statistically significant * p < 0.05 or ** p < 0.01 compared with NT and TBS at 7 h. Each treatment was performed in triplicate. Standard error bars are shown. |
