Figure 1. Bacterial adherence over time of Appwt or AppΔapxIΔapxIIC in PRRSV co-infected SJPL and MARC-145 cells.

SJPL (A) and MARC-145 (B) cells were infected with or without PRRSV at an MOI of 0.5 during 72 hours, and then cells were co-infected with Appwt or AppΔapxIΔapxIIC at an MOI of 10. Bacterial adherence was measured in CFU per well after 1, 2 and 3 hours post bacterial infection as described in Auger et al., 2009 [20]. Values are presented as ± Standard Deviation (SD). No statistical significance was obtained following two-away ANOVA analysis. All experiments were repeated 3 times.
