Aureusimines in Staphylococcus aureus Are Not Involved in Virulence
Figure 4
Aureusimines do not contribute to staphylococcal virulence.
The test strains (1×107 cfu) were administered into 10 mice per strain via retro-orbital injection; then, four days later, after measuring weight losses, organs were harvested and bacterial cfu in the organs was determined. In the graph, each dot represents data from one mouse. Mean and standard deviation are indicated.
