Heatflow data (column A) and resultant cumulative heat curves (column B) for the IMC determinations of the MICs of cefoxitin and vancomycin for S. aureus ATCC29213. Cultures were incubated at 37°C in cation-adjusted Mueller-Hinton II broth. t1, t3: t delay for 0 mg l-1 antibiotic; t2: t delay for 16 mg l-1 cefoxitin; t4: t delay for 0.5 mg l-1 vancomycin. Blank is medium alone. Curves are the mean of three replicates.
