Figure 6

Percentage of the L. plantarum WCFS1 culture with an unaffected intact cell membrane after PEF treatment as assessed by PI staining for several PEF conditions. Both panels show the same experimental data presented in different ways. In figure A the symbols represent the different electric field strengths (
2.5 kV/cm,
5 kV/cm,
7.5 kV/cm,
10 kV/cm,
12.5 kV/cm) and in figure B the different symbols represent the pulse duration of a single pulse (
50 µs,
100 µs,
1 ms). Error bars represent standard deviations of biologically independent replicates (n ≥ 2).
