Antibiotic susceptibility in biofilm. USA300 LAC, msaABCR deletion mutant, and the complementation strains biofilm were grown on MBEC™-HTP plates and treated overnight with 10X to 80X MIC of a. daptomycin, b. vancomycin or c. linezolid. These results represent the means of three independent experiments performed in triplicate. Control in each experiment represents the biofilm grown in regular biofilm media without antibiotics. Error bars represent SE. Student’s t-test and one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test (OriginPro) was used to compare the results of the wild-type to mutants (* p-value <0.05, ** p-value <0.005)
