Fig. 1. Changes in the intensity of growth of the M. tuberculosis H37Rv test strain under the influence of the CHX-EDTA-Zn complex. The abscissa shows the drug concentration, the ordinate shows the average fluorescence intensity in conventional units, M is the mean value, (M-I) and (M+I) are the lower and upper limits of the confidence interval (at α = 0.05)
