Effect of Trehalose and Trehalose Transport on the Tolerance of Clostridium perfringens to Environmental Stress in a Wild Type Strain and Its Fluoroquinolone-Resistant Mutant

Figure 3

Growth of wild type C. perfringens ATCC 13124 and mutant with different concentrations of NaCl in the absence and presence of trehalose. Black bars (wild type without trehalose), gray bars (mutant without trehalose), dotted bars (wild type with trehalose), and white bars (mutant with trehalose). OD was measured after 24 hours’ anaerobic incubation at 37°C.
