The effect of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) on membrane potential of planktonic S. mutans. DiOC2(3) staining of S. mutans treated with 1.1 mg/ml EGCG, as determined by flow cytometry. A. Red fluorescence (30 min). B Red fluorescence (2 h). C Green fluorescence (30 min). D Green fluorescence (2 h). E Forward scatter area (FSC-A) (30 min). F FSC-A (2 h). G Side scatter area (SSC-A) (30 min). H SSC-A (2 h). Similar results were obtained with 2.2 mg/ml and 4.4 mg/ml EGCG
