Screening sulfur sources at varying concentration to maintain F. novicida viability.
XG and reference buffers were supplemented with two sulfur sources at varying concentrations. Viability of F. novicida in test matrices were spiked with ~104 CFU/mL and stored at 22 and 40°C for 28 days. Data are the average of one biological replicate and two sample replicates plated in triplicate (n = 6 measurements).
