TABLE 3.
Quantitation of microcluster formation during UTI
| Time (h) and strain | Microclusters as % of totala (no. counted) |
|---|---|
| 24 | |
| WT | 0 (100) |
| kpsF::EP185 | 72 (89) |
| 48 | |
| WT | 35 (66) |
| kpsF::EP185 | 79 (34) |
Total = microclusters plus IBC. P < 0.0001 between the WT and the kpsF::EP185 mutant at 24 and 48 h by Fisher's exact test.
