Figure 3. Treatment with SPH protects susceptible aged mice from bacterial lung infection.

Figure 3

Aged and young mice were inoculated with 106 PA 30 minutes after treatment with SPH. A) 4 hours after inoculation, BAL fluid was collected and CFU enumerated. B) Change in aural temperature of mice 4 hours after inoculation with PA (n=5 mice). Experiments were conducted twice to ensure reproducibility and data representative of one is shown. *, p>0.05 compared to young mice, young mice treated with SPH, and aged mice treated with SPH by ANOVA.
