Susceptibility of the ΔgdpS strain to low temperature. All the S. epidermidis strains were inoculated in fresh TSB medium and grown to logarithmic phase (4 h; OD600 = 2) at 37 °C. The cultures were then placed at 4 °C, and the turbidity was measured every day at 600 nm. The experiment was repeated at least three times, and representative curves are shown
