Quantitative bacteriology of mono-culture P. aeruginosa and MRSA biofilm. PA-68, PA-76, MRSA-35, and MRSA-86 CFU/mL values were quantified from growth in mono-cultures to be compared and contrasted with CFU/mL values in 1:1 and 3:1 MRSA:PA co-cultures. Both MRSA strains showed higher CFU/mL values than P. aeruginosa strains. Collectively the CFU/mL counts were, from greatest to least, MRSA-35 (4.1 x 109 CFU/mL), MRSA-86 (3.9 x 109 CFU/mL), PA-68 (2.73 x 109 CFU/mL), and PA-76 (2.07 x 109 CFU/mL).
