Two-Component Signal Transduction System SaeRS Positively Regulates Staphylococcus epidermidis Glucose Metabolism

Figure 5

Viability of S. epidermidis 1457 in BM medium containing various concentrations of glucose. Overnight cultures of S. epidermidis were diluted 1 : 200 in BM medium with or without 0.125%, 0.25%, 0.5%, and 1% (g/mL) glucose and incubated at 37°C for 24 h. Colony forming units (CFU) on TSA plates were further counted with serial dilutions of each sample plated on 6 agar plates.
