Determination of DNA loaded in the BGs by qPCR. L. casei 393 ghosts were loaded with pCI-EGFP plasmid. BGs were washed five times with HBS after loading with pCI-EGFP. DNA in bacterial ghosts and washing solution were extracted respectively and quantified by qPCR. Each point was the mean of quadruplicate measurements ± SD. Each experiment was repeated at least twice
