Fig. 4: (A) Removal of glass, PDMS, and lubricant-infused PDMS from a solution of S. aureus after 48 hours of growth. The black arrow indicates the location of the infused PDMS sample. (B) Surfaces after staining for adherent biofilm with crystal violet. (C) Image analysis results (% biofilm coverage) of the surfaces. (D) CFU counts showed a decrease of two orders of magnitude in the lubricant-infused PDMS samples compared to the control PDMS and glass samples.
