(A) Growth of CaRP-treated S. epidermidis ATCC35984, CRT: control; (B) inhibition of biofilm formation of S. epidermidis  * and ** related to control (100%); (C) Scanning electron microscopy of S. epidermidis treated with CaRP (a) to (c) control; (d) to (f) 0.05 mg; (g) to (i) 0.5 mg of extract; (D) fluorescence microscopy: (a-b) at inoculation; (c-d) 0.05 mg; (e-f) 0.5 mg of extract mature biofilm. Note: (D)-f cells are clumped.
