The aggregate effect of WT-CFT073, ΔPPK1-CFT073, and their medium on COM. (a) WT-CFT073 and its medium both promoted CaOx crystal aggregation (original magnification: ×200; the results are presented as the . in comparison with the corresponding group). ΔPPK1-CFT073 and its medium reduced CaOx crystal aggregation. (b) Ppk1 knockout UPEC strain was constructed and tested by PCR. Clone 1-16: the 16 clones randomly selected on the Kana resistance plate were numbered in sequence.
