a) Growth of M. tuberculosis H37Rv [squares], H37Rv Δ19 complemented [up triangles] and H37Rv Δ19 [down triangles] in C57BL/6 mice. b) Growth of M. tuberculosis H37Rv [squares] and H37Rv Δ19 [triangles] in IFNγ gene disrupted mice after low dose aerosol infection. c) Growth of BCG after low dose aerosol in C57BL/6 shown for comparative purposes. The bacterial load was calculated by plating lung homogenates onto 7H11 agar at 37°C and counting colonies 21 days later. The data are expressed as the mean ± the standard error from five mice per group. Each graph is representative of two independent experiments.
