Growth curves of MRSA ATCC 43300. MRSA cultures were grown in sub-inhibitory concentrations of fraction F-10 alone, ampicillin alone and in combination. Cell growth was measured by using optical density at 600 nm at indicated time points. The curves represent triplicates of three independent experiments. Error bars show the standard deviation ( 1/64 × MIC Amp, 1/4 × MIC F-10, combination of Amp + F-10, control MRSA, Amp = ampicillin, MIC = minimum inhibitory concentration)
