Calculation of the number of live cells remaining on the resin discs after treatment for 5 s. Colonies were counted and the bacterial load was calculated. The bacterial load was assessed as the number of bacteria in colony forming units (CFU) per cm− 2 (corresponding to the unit area of one resin disc). Data are presented as means ± SD (n = 7, one-way ANOVA, Steel-Dwass test *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01). Error bars represent 95% confidence intervals
