Figure 3


Figure 3. Representative surface plot profiles depicting biofilm accumulation over time and the effect of SDS. The profiles were taken from reference lines applied to the captured image. The vertical axis represents the degree of biofilm accumulation (based on pixel intensity). The horizontal axis represents distance along the horizontal profile. The width of the peaks indicates the width of the microcolonies, and the distance between the edges of the peaks indicates the distance between adjacent microcolonies (µm). The arrow indicates the distance between the micro-colonies (mc). Biofilm at (a) 3 hrs, (b) 24 hrs, (c) 1 hr after SDS application, and (d) 5 hrs after SDS application.
