Fig. 6: Alterations of lipids and proteins by direct CAP.

Samples have been treated in PBS at pH = 7.4 (red circles) and pH = 4.5 (blue squares). Membrane hydroperoxide formation of lipids and proteins in a E. coli and b S. simulans after direct CAP treatment. c Peroxidation of cytoplasmic proteins in E. coli and S. simulans. d Phospholipid acyl chains upon CAP treatment in E. coli and S. simulans. All experiments were performed twice in duplicates or triplicates. Values are the mean ± SD (n ≥ 6). One-way ANOVA analysis was used to compare the difference between CAP-treated samples towards corresponding negative controls (*p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001).
