Fig. 2From: Constructing Escherichia coli co-display systems for biodegradation of polyethylene terephthalateThe adhesive performance of E. coli cells to PET. A Microscopic images of E. coli cells adhering with PET (100 ×). Three independent experiments are shown with numbers. Control represents E. coli cells with empty vector. B Cell density (CFU/cm2) of E. coli cells adhering with PET. All experiments were conducted in triplicate. The values represent mean ± SD, and the asterisk denotes statistically significant difference (p < 0.05, unpaired t-test)Back to article page
