Figure 1. Spontaneous bacterial colonization in C57BL/6N Scnn1b-Tg+ mice.

Figure 1

(a) Timecourse analysis of total colony forming units (CFU) in BAL samples from Scnn1b-Tg+ mice (■) and WT littermates (□). (Log10+1)-transformed data. n= number of mice/group. T test ** p<0.005, * p<0.05 vs. WT littermates. (b) Individual CFUs and bacterial species isolated from C57BL/6N Scnn1b-Tg+ mice. Each tick on the x axis represents an individual mouse. (c) Bacteria isolated from tongue, esophagus, trachea, and lung tissue homogenates of PND 5 C57BL/6N Scnn1b-Tg+ mice and WT littermates. (Log10+1)-transformed data. Each tick on the x axis represents an individual mouse. CFUs in confluent plates could not be enumerated and were arbitrarily set at 2×107 CFU/tissue.
