Figure 5. Attenuation of virulence of the ΔfpuA strain in a murine model of infection.

Figure 5

DBA/2J mice were infected by intratracheal infection with WT (filled diamonds) or ΔfpuA (open triangles) spores at 1×105 (A), or 1×106 (B) spores per mouse. Mice were monitored for fourteen days. Survival curves for ΔfpuA were significantly different from wild-type at all doses tested by the log-rank test (p values indicated above).
