Inhibition of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilm Formation by Traditional Chinese Medicinal Herb Herba patriniae

Table 4

The transcriptional levels of selected genes in PAO1 and PAO1 treated with H. patriniae.

Gene	Relative mRNA level determined by ΔCt calculation
	Without H. patriniae	With H. patriniae	value
algU	1.00	0.192	0.014
algA	1.00	0.090	0.011
pslM	1.00	0.695	0.043
bdlA	1.00	0.412	0.036

Note: the mRNA level of each gene was normalized to that of proC. The values shown represent the mean of three different tests.
