Growth of HV B. pseudomallei NCTC 13178 (A) and LV B. pseudomallei NCTC 13179 (25-CFU [B] and 6 × 104-CFU [C] challenges) in BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice. Results are shown as the mean bacterial load (log10 CFU per milliliter) of five mice ± the standard error of the mean. Significant differences (P < 0.01) are indicated by arrows. b, BALB/c mouse death; c, C57BL/6 mouse death.
