Figure 6.

BSCI treatment was associated with a reduction in cytokines and chemokines, but increased CFU counts in fetal tissues. Luminex analysis was performed on (A) lung, (B) brain, and (C,D) chorioamniotic membrane lysates from GBS-infected animals (solid blue circles) and those that received GBS plus BSCI (solid red circles). The CFU counts per gram of tissue (E) are shown from GBS-infected animals (solid blue circles) and those inoculated with GBS plus BSCI (solid red circles). *p < 0.05, Wilcoxon rank sum test.
