FIG. 7.
C4 deposition on three representative organisms previously incubated with different concentrations of MBL. S. aureus NCTC6571 (●) and one strain of Klebsiella (▴) were selected for their known ability to bind MBL, whereas another strain of Klebsiella (⧫) did not bind to the protein. Each point represents the mean ± the standard error of the mean of the MFI for three independent experiments.
