Figure 2. — Recovery of M. bovis BCG lux (dose 1 × 10⁷ CFU per larva) by luminescence measurement (RLU/ml) over a 2 week time-course from homogenized infected larvae. At least 30 larvae were infected with 10 µl of 1 × 10⁷ CFU M. bovis BCG lux. The survival of M. bovis BCG lux within live G. mellonella was determined by luminescence measurement over time (24, 48, 72, 96, 168, 366 h) from the lysates of 5 homogenized larvae to assess the ability of the immune system of G. mellonella to control mycobacterial growth. Data are pooled from three independent experiments with 5 larvae per time-point per run. Error bars show standard deviation of the mean.
