Inhibition of resistance to H2O2 in K. pneumoniae by a) metformin, b) NAC, and c) secnidazole. The modified disk test was carried out. A significant reduction of resistance to H2O2 was found with 1/8 MIC of metformin, NAC, and secnidazole-treated isolate as compared to control untreated bacteria. The results were expressed as a percentage of zone inhibition of the treated isolates compared with the untreated control strain. The data shown are the means ± standard errors of three biological experiments with three technical replicates each. *, significant P < 0.05
