  1. Median bacterial burden as well as standard deviation expressed as log10 cfu/g tissue in kidney for the untreated and the tramadol-treated group for K. pneumoniae ATCC 43816 and E. coli ATCC 25922. Statistical testing was performed using a Kolmogorov–Smirnov test. P values are indicated in the respective column.
