Figure 5

Plot of optical density at 590 nm (circles) and associated first derivative (∂ t OD, triangles) data associated with S. aureus growth ( C I ~ 104 CFU mL-1) at 37°C in BHI broth. Open triangles/circles = negative control (beginning/ending arrows in red); closed triangles/circles ~10-6 M freeze-dried keratin Np s (beginning/ending arrows in blue); starting bacteria concentration ~104 CFU mL-1.
