Re-epithelialization on day 12 of experiment. Non-diabetic wounds 97*/- 5% reepithelialization, S. aureus-inoculated non-diabetic wounds: 87+/- 22%. Diabetic wounds showed 84 +/- 15%, and S. aureus-inoculated diabetic wounds were 59 +/- 8% reepithelialized. + = p < 0.05 diabetic versus non-diabetic wounds; * = p < 0.05 S. aureus-noculated diabetic versus non-inoculated diabetic wounds; # = p < 0.05 S. aureus-inoculated diabetic versus S. aureus-inoculated non-diabetic wounds; § = p < 0.001 S. aureus-inoculated diabetic wounds versus non-diabetic wounds.
