Figure 2From: Inhibition of Salmonella Typhimurium adhesion, invasion, and intracellular survival via treatment with methyl gallate alone and in combination with marbofloxacinInhibitory effects of methyl gallate (MG) on adhesion, invasion, and intracellular survival of Salmonella Typhimurium alone and in combination with a sub-minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of marbofloxacin (MRB). A Effect of MG alone and in combination with sub-MIC of MRB on adhesion of Salmonella Typhimurium; B effect of MG alone and in combination with sub-MIC of MRB on the invasion of Salmonella Typhimurium on Caco-2 cells; C invasion of Raw 264.7 cells, D effect of MG alone and in combination with sub-MIC of MRB on the intracellular survival of Salmonella Typhimurium in Raw 264.7 cells; E dose-dependent inhibition of invasion by MG; F inhibition of invasion by MG on two different field isolates of Salmonella Typhimurium. The upper figures show the percentage of inhibition. Cell, uninfected and non-treated control; Salmonella, infected with Salmonella Typhimurium but left untreated; Sub-MIC and MIC, controls treated with the sub-MIC and MIC of MRB; MG-30, treated with 30 µg/mL of methyl gallate alone; MGM, treatment with a combination of methyl gallate (30 µg/mL) and sub-MIC of MRB; MG-100, treated with 100 µg/mL of methyl gallate alone. Results represent the mean ± SEM (n = 8; *P-value < 0.05; **P-value < 0.01; ***P-value < 0.001).Back to article page
