A Novel Qualitative and Quantitative Biofilm Assay Based on 3D Soft Tissue

Figure 2

Graph showing bacterial load in 3D synthetic soft tissue (SST) after 24-hour exposure to wound dressings without (placebo) and with silver (Ag). Error bars show standard error of the mean (SEM) with 𝑛=3 for the placebo samples (except 𝑛=2 for F) and 𝑛=6 for the silver containing dressings. *Significantly different from corresponding placebo at 𝑃<0.05.
