Time kill assay. Time kill assay of the mucoid (a) and non-mucoid (b) strains of P. aeruginosa. Killing was tested by incubating P. aeruginosa with peptide concentrations at the MIC, three dilutions above (2×, 4× and 8× MIC) and one dilution below the MIC (0.5× MIC) in CA-MHB. Viable cell counts were determined after 2, 4, 8 and 24 h of incubation at 37 °C. The growth control had no antibiotic. This data is a representative of three separate experiments and significance was established at *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01
