Effects of Total Alkaloids of Sophora alopecuroides on Biofilm Formation in Staphylococcus epidermidis

Figure 4

The effects of antimicrobial agents on the biofilm formation in S. epidermidis determined by a CLSM analysis. The S. epidermidis isolate 30 cells were treated with TSB control (a), 10 mg/mL of TASA (b), 500 mg/L of CIP (c), and 500 mg/L of ERY (d), and the morphological structure of biofilm was visualized under a CLSM.
