Experiment no.	LD50 (CFU/mL)
	WT	ΔhmgA
1	1.4 × 108	> 3.1 × 108
2	2.1 × 108	4.1 × 108
3	2.4 × 108	5.8 × 108
4	1.9 × 108	5.4 × 108
Mean ± SD	1.9 ± 0.4 × 108	5.1 ± 0.9 × 108

Four independent LD₅₀ experiments were performed. Mean values of LD₅₀ between the WT and ΔhmgA were significantly different (P < 0.05, student's t-test).
