RESUMEN
Objective:To evaluate the effects of different growth conditions on E.faecalis growth in the microfluid chip and the penetration of E.faecalis into microtubes.Methods:Four units on the chip were randomly selected as control,BHI,nutrient-Tdeprived (PBS) and pH 10 groups.The growth of E.faecalis was monitored by microscope for a period of 72 h after the suspension of E.faecalis had been added into the chip.Results:The microscopic analysis showed a distinct variation in the growth rate and morphological feature under different experimental conditions.he depth of bacterial penetration was significantly greater in BHI group.Conclusion:This study demonstrated that environmental changes can significantly influence the growth and penetration of E.faecalis into the micro tubes.
