Effect of imipenem on the growth of all three strains. Firstly, the same strain was exposed to imipenem of 0.125 µg/mL (MIC ˂1 µg/mL), and then exposed to imipenem at grade increasing (0.25 µg/mL, 0.5 µg/mL, 1 µg/mL, 2 µg/mL, 4 µg/mL, 8 µg/mL, and 12 µg/mL), decreasing (12 µg/mL to 8 µg/mL, 8 µg/mL to 4 µg/mL, and 4 µg/mL to 0 µg/mL), and canceling (12 µg/mL to 0 µg/mL, 8 µg/mL to 0 µg/mL, and 4 µg/mL to 0 µg/mL) doses, respectively. Bacterial growth curve was drawn with GraphPad 7.0 software
