FIG. 3.
(A) Time course of the growth of S. pneumoniae D39 in the lungs of BALB/c (n = 10 except for 96, 168, and 336 h for which n = 5) and CBA/Ca mice (n = 5). Data represent the mean of 5 or 10 mice per point, with error bars showing the standard error of the mean. ∗, P < 0.05 compared to time zero; ∗∗, P < 0.001 compared to time zero. (B) Time course of the growth of S. pneumoniae D39 in the blood of BALB/c (n = 10 except for 96, 168, and 336 h for which n = 5) and CBA/Ca mice (n = 5). Data represent the mean of 5 or 10 mice per point, with error bars showing the standard error of the mean. ∗, P < 0.01 compared to time zero; ∗∗, P < 0.001 compared to time zero.
