Table 2 Average, and standard deviation (n = 3) of the numbers of bacteria in the biofilms grown on various substrates
From: Ultra-rapid elimination of biofilms via the combustion of a nanoenergetic coating
Substrate | Bacterial load in biofilm (mean ± standard deviation) |
|---|---|
Glass | 1.86 (± 0.47) × 107 |
Ceramic | 1.26 (± 0.46) × 108 |
Brass | 5.43 (± 0.23) × 107 |
Steel | 1.20 (± 0.34) × 108 |
