| − | In this figure, intracellular content of geraniol was less in the strain ''E. coli'' JM109 (''marA'') than the strain ''E. coli'' JM109 (WT). The concentrations of intracellular geraniol from ''E. coli'' JM109 (''marA'') was 42.9 μg/ml, which was 40% lower than that from of ''E. coli'' JM109 (WT), 72.2 μg/ml. This figure is suggesting that internalized geraniol could be more efficiently exported through AcrAB-TolC efflux pump following the presumed activation of this gene by introducing the activator ''marA'' gene.]]

| − | E. coli JM109 and E. coli JM109 (marA) were spotted on LBGMg agar plates in serial ten-fold dilutions (10⁻¹～10⁻⁵), overlaid with geraniol solutions, and incubated at 30°C for 24 h. This figure shows that E. coli JM109 (marA) cells that overexpress the marA product is more survived on geraniol overlay plates than the counterpart control E. coli JM109 wild type cells.

Time interval for treatment was set every 1 hour from 1 hour to 4 hours. A: ''E. coli'' JM109 (WT) + hexane; B: ''E. coli'' JM109 (''marA'') + hexane; C: ''E. coli'' JM109 (WT) + geraniol; D: ''E. coli'' JM109 (''marA'') + geraniol.

| − | As shown in Figs. 2 A and B, treatment with hexane of ''E. coli'' JM109 (WT) and of ''E. coli'' JM109 (''marA'') showed similar colony numbers during these treatment intervals to those of time zero. This result suggests that hexane at this concentration and duration of time for 4hours did not affect both cell growth. In contrast, treatment with geraniol of ''E. coli'' JM109 (WT) and of ''E. coli'' JM109 (''marA'') showed toxicities to both strains (Figs. 3 B, C and D). If we watch the colony numbers carefully, ''E. coli'' JM109 (''marA'') had more than ''E. coli'' JM109 (WT) during these treatment intervals ((Figs. 3 C and D). These results demonstrate that toxicity of the geraniol was less to the strain ''E. coli'' JM109 (''marA'') than the strain ''E. coli'' JM109 (WT).
