The mean ATP activity (measured in Relative Light Units (RLU) ×107) for each isolate (done in triplicate) was calculated and the mean of all isolates was plotted with standard error of the mean (SEM). Comparisons with and without tobramycin treatment were performed for each condition using non-parametric Mann–Whitney test ***p < 0.001, **p < 0.01, *p < 0.05, ns not significant.
