MIC assay against E. coli of CeA peptides produced in three different expression systems. Growth inhibition of E. coli ATCC 25922 is shown in the presence of various concentrations of CeA peptide produced in the CF system (white rectangle: CeA-1), AT-HIS system (black rectangle: CeA-2), and SA-ELK16 system (rectangle filled with oblique lines: CeA-3). Chemically synthesized CeA peptide was also tested (rectangle filled with point: CeA). GC, growth control for E. coli ATCC 25922 in the absence of CeA. NC, sterilized Müller–Hinton broth used as the normal control in this experiment. Experiments were performed in triplicate, and standard deviations (error bars) are shown
