Microbiological test results. a Control plate: S. epidermidis growth on pH indicator agar. b TA applied at insertion site: TA inhibits S. epidermidis growth along the TA edge to the insertion point. c Transparent dressing applied over insertion site: S. epidermidis growth under the dressing, at the cannula insertion point and along the cannula dressing tunnel. d TA + transparent dressing: S. epidermidis growth under the dressing but inhibited beyond the TA edge.
