Figure 6

Quantification of biofilm formation abilities of E. coli DH5α strains on 96-well polystyrene plates in LB. Crystal violet staining method is used. Findings are expressed as fold changes versus WT based on based on average of three independent replicates. Bacteria in LB broth had enhanced biofilm formation abilities compared to bacteria growing in M9 (T/G = 1:2), where biofilm formation abilities were uniform (including Δ180), but a quarter of the level of that seen for the strains cultured in LB broth (Data not shown).
