Scanning electron micrograph of APLss-treated staphylococcal strains (A) MSSA 25923 and (B) MRSA 33591. Staphylococcal cells were exposed to SEM following treatment with 0.5× and 1× MIC of APLss or 1× MIC of Van. In the left panel, untreated control cells have intact smooth surfaces. Scale bar: 2, 10 μm. Abbreviations: APLss, antimicrobial peptidase lysostaphin; MIC, minimum inhibitory concentration; Van, vancomycin
