Effect of temperature on the growth kinetics and survival rate of A. baumannii. (A) Growth kinetics of A. baumannii were compared between MEMR (n = 13) and MEMNR (n = 7) using an independent two-sample t test. (B) Survival rates of A. baumannii at 4℃ were compared between MEMR (n = 2) and MEMNR (n = 2) using an independent two-sample t test. (C) Competitive index of AB7434-poxa23 at 37, 25, and 4 ℃ were compared using one-way ANOVA. Data are presented as the mean ± SEM of n = 3 independent experiments. Asterisks denote statistical significance: *P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001, **** P < 0.0001
