Figure 2

ATP is present in the culture media of clinical and laboratory strains of E. coli and Salmonella during growth. Overnight culture of each isolate was diluted 1:100 in fresh LB and cultured at 37°C with shaking. Early log phase bacterial cultures were harvested at 3 hours of incubation and ATP assays were carried out with culture supernatant. The ATP concentration was plotted for each bacterial isolate of E. coli, Salmonella enterica Serovar Enteritidis (SE) or Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium (ST). The experiment was performed three times and results are from a representative experiment.
