Silver dressings are ineffective against K. pneumoniae silver adapted strains. The susceptibility of seven wildtype and their stepwise-adapted counterparts to four clinically (A, B, C, D) and one commercially (E) available silver dressing were tested using zones of clearance. Values plotted represent the mean diameter of growth reduction from three independent experiments. Error bars represent standard deviation. Ag: Adapted strain
