From: Diffusible signal factor (DSF) quorum sensing signal and structurally related molecules enhance the antimicrobial efficacy of antibiotics against some bacterial pathogens

Figure 1

Synergistic activity of DSF and its structurally related molecules (50 μM) with gentamicin (A), kanamycin (B), and rifampicin (C) against B. cereus . For each antibiotic, a series 2-fold dilution was prepared for determination of MIC with or without DSF or related molecule. Data shown are means of two replicates and error bars indicate the standard deviations. The differences between the samples with addition of 50 μM DSF or related molecule and control are statistically significant with *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, as determined by using the Student t test.
