Table 1.

Dose–response of WT or CV2 M. pneumoniae strain lung infection

WT CV2
Inoculation dose (c.f.u. per mouse) 104 106 107 108 104 106 107 108
n = mice infected/total 1/7 7/7 5/5 7/7 0/7 5/7 6/6 5/5
log10(c.f.u. per lung) (mean ± s.d.) 0.9 ± 0.2 3.3 ± 0.9 3.6 ± 0.9 6.4 ± 0.7 0.8 ± 0.07 2.4 ± 1.1 4.0 ± 0.7 5.9 ± 0.7

CD1 mice (n = 5–7) were inoculated i.t. with increasing doses of WT or CV2 M. pneumoniae. At 4 d.p.i., the ratio of infected mice and the log10(c.f.u. per lung) (log10(mean ± s.d.)) were determined.
