Figure 1. Pneumococcal loads in lungs and sera.

Figure 1

Lungs (A, C and E) and sera (B, D and F) from non-immunized BALB/c mice (Non) or mice immunized with wP or PspA5-wP were collected at different time points after intranasal challenge with ATCC6303 pneumococcal strain (PspA5). CFU were determined in four mice per group, after plating the samples in blood-agar. Circles represent individual mice and lines represent the mean for each group. (d = days). In conditions where no bacteria were detected, 1 CFU was considered.
