Effect of Epi on adhesion of P. aeruginosa H103. (a) Top view of P. aeruginosa H103-GFP adhesion observed by CLSM with two different concentrations of Epi (1 and 10 µM), after 2 h. (b) Image analysis by COMSTAT. Data were normalized according to the untreated control set at 100%. (c) Adhesion assay on Caco-2/TC7 cells, *p = 0.0418. The error bars indicate the standard error of the mean (SEM). Two-tailed paired t-test was used (n = 5), **p = 0.001222, ***p = 0.000413, ns: not significant.
