Fig 5. Passive Immunization with the antibodies raised against the recombinant proteins promotes clearance of E. faecium in mouse liver in comparison with normal rabbit serum.

24 hours after the bacterial challenge mice were sacrificed and livers were removed to assess viable counts. Each point represents the bacterial counts from a single mouse. Bars indicate the median CFU/100 mg of kidney for the group. P value was < 0.05 (*P ≤ 0.05, **P≤ 0.01) for comparison between the animals immunized with the antibodies raised against the recombinant proteins and control animals immunized with NRS determined by analysis of variance for multi-group comparisons using on log-transformed data, and Kruskal-Wallis test.
