FIG. 1.
M. tuberculosis H37Rv and H37Ra binding to human FN (a, d), SP-A (b, e), and SP-D (c, f) compared with BSA under shear and static conditions. Log10 average bacilli/cm2 for each test molecule is compared side by side with the average bacilli/cm2 for BSA for each molecule. Error bars represent 1 standard deviation. P values indicate differences between binding of the designated strains to the specified host protein and BSA.
