Bacteria transferred to surfaces by superabsorbent dressings. Superabsorbent wound dressings were inoculated with ~ 1 * 107 CFU/ml of Staphylococcus aureus daily, over 7 days in triplicate. On 1, 3 and 7 days of inoculation, dressings were transferred to agar and cultured overnight at 37 °C. Dressings were removed and cultured overnight at 37 °C. Plates were imaged for bacterial growth. Representative images for each dressing are displayed. Figure produced in Microsoft PowerPoint 365.
