Figure 3. Antibacterial activities of C16:1 authentic standards against S. aureus (A) and S. epidermidis (B) strains. MIC values of 6-cis-C16:1, 7-cis-C16:1, and 9-cis-C16:1 isomers for S. aureus and S. epidermidis were determined. Data are mean ± SD of three independent assays, represented by the bars and whiskers. MIC: Minimum inhibitory concentration.
