Figure 3: Effect of Lcr35 on the viability of Prevotella bivia (a), Gardnerella vaginalis (b), and Candida albicans (c) as a function of the time of coculture. The pathogen was incubated without (filled square) or with (empty squares) Lcr35 at 3 7 ∘ C for 24 hours and the colony forming unit m L − 1 was determined after 4, 8, and 24 hours of incubation by plating onto appropriate media. Each value shown is the mean ± SD from three experiments. ∗ ∶ statistically significant differences ( 𝑃 = . 0 5 0 , Mann-Whitney test).
