TABLE 3.

Alive/dead status of G. mellonella waxworm larvae, and presence of microbial proliferation as scored through GFP fluorescence status of the waxworm, over 3 days post-injection with various strains of Arsenophonus, with E. coli MG1655 known to be not capable of proliferation, and BHI medium injection as controls.

	Day 1			Day 2			Day 3
	Galleria alive bacteria present	Galleria alive bacteria absent	Galleria dead	Galleria alive bacteria present	Galleria alive bacteria absent	Galleria dead	Galleria alive bacteria present	Galleria alive bacteria absent	Galleria dead

N=25 for all cases except BHI control, N=20. Galleria alive bacteria present, waxworm alive with signs of bacterial proliferation as assessed by GFP fluorescence; Galleria alive bacteria absent, waxworm alive without signs of bacterial proliferation as assessed by GFP fluorescence; Galleria dead, waxworm had died.
