Quantification of colonization of C. albicans in wild type and Fut2-null mice after control surgery or hysterectomy surgery. Following surgery and estrogen treatment, wild type and Fut2-null mice (n= 11-13 per group) were inoculated vaginally with C. albicans to induced experimental vaginal candidiasis. After 2 days, mice were euthanized and the vagina was removed, homogenized, and fungal burden determined. Error bars show S.E.M. The experiment was performed in triplicate with similar results. For statistical analysis, the three trials were combined and subjected to two-way ANOVA. Statistically significant differences (p=<0.05) are indicated by *.
