(a) Approximation of the inhibition area border by a round or square zone. (b) Example of the inhibition area observed around the HA film (“HA”), loaded with SNPs (“HA + SNPs”), and recovered by a second HA layer of 6 nm (“6 nm”), 12 nm (“12 nm”), and 18 nm (“18 nm”) of thickness (2 different samples were placed on each plate). (c) Quantitative results of the diffusion test on LB agar plates for the 5 different types of material. § symbol indicates significant difference compared to HA ().
