Figure 4

Influence of the vapors of ethanol (EtV), 1-octanol (OcV) and aqueous tea extracts (TeaV) on cell morphology of Pseudomonas sp. NEEL19, cultured in DSMZ 125* containing 0.1% (w/v) Trp. Scanning electron micrographs of cells originated from (a) EtV, (b) OcV and (c) TeaV treatments are shown. (d) and (e) show variations in cell length and width, respectively; Sample exposed to EtV was used as a control. Arrow, putative pili/nanowire; Error bar, mean (n = 60) ± s.d. *P < 0.1, **P < 0.05, ***P < 0.01, ****P < 0.0001; ns, non-significant.
