Bacterial count (Log10CFU/ml) following treatment of intact biofilm of K. pneumoniae grown in microtiter plate, with gentamicin (10 μg/ml)/phage/bacterial enzyme (20 units/ml) alone as well as in combination. The experiment was performed thrice in triplicate. Error bars = ± SD; n = 3 [*p > 0.05 (gentamicin treated vs untreated), $ p < 0.05 (bacterial/phage enzyme treated vs untreated), # p < 0.05 (bacterial enzyme + gentamicin/phage enzyme + gentamicin treated vs untreated)]. Denatured bacterial/phage depolymerase heated at 75 °C for 10 min were used as controls for biofilm treatment. But no effect on CPS content was observed
