LPS treatment raises STM14028 colonization of tonsils, cecum, and spleen of piglets. Recovery of STM14028 from different organs at 48 h post infection of piglets treated with LPS and infected with STM14028 (LPS+STM group) or only infected with STM14028 (STM group). LPS-treatment increases the colonization of tonsils, cecum, and spleen but does not influence the colonization of mesenteric lymph nodes, colon, ileum, and liver of piglets after STM14028 infection. Data refer to one out of two separate experiments performed with comparable results. The differences between the groups were statistically significant (*P ≤ 0.01, Mann–Whitney unpaired t-test).
