Loss of epithelial barrier function with TPN leads to bacterial translocation and sepsis. Lymph node (LN) and spleen isolates from TPN-dependent mice were incubated on Columbia-CNA agar (A) to isolate Gram-positive bacteria. Similarly, culture on MacConkey agar demonstrates Gram-negative bacteria from TPN-dependent LN isolates (B). Rates of bacteremia are significantly greater in TPN-dependent vs. fed mice (C) (Sun et al., 2006).
