Fig 10. Relevance of Sbp in a mouse catheter infection-model.

Fig 10

Implanted catheter segments were injected with (A) 1457-M10, 1457-M10Δaap, 1457-M10Δsbp, and 1457-M10ΔaapΔsbp (n = 10 mice per strain) or (B) 1585 (n = 9 mice) and 1585Δsbp (n = 10 mice). Animals were sacrificed after 7 days and numbers of catheter adherent cells [CFU/ml] and bacteria from the peri-catheter tissue [CFU/g] were enumerated. n.s., not significant compared to the Sbp producing parent strain (1457-M10 or 1585, respectively).
