TABLE 3.

Survival of Artemia nauplii infected with V. proteolyticus^a

Strain	Survival (%)
Control seawater	1.3 ± 2.5
Control filtrate	1.3 ± 2.5
LVS2 filtrate	0 ± 0
LVS2 filtrate plus LVS2	28 ± 27
LVS8 filtrate	0.6 ± 1.8
LVS8 filtrate plus LVS8	98.0 ± 5.7

^aArtemia nauplii were infected with V. proteolyticus CW8T2 (10³ CFU/ml), and survival rates were determined for sterile filtrates of the strains LVS2 and LVS8, with and without addition of the strain itself (5 × 10⁶ cells/ml). Values are averages ± standard deviations (n = 4 to 8).
