Better persistence of M. smegmatis expressing PE11 in mice.
Balb/c mice (n = 6) were infected intravenously with approximately (a) equal number (5 × 107) of Msmeg-pVV or Msmeg-PE11 and sacrificed after 2, 7 and 14 days post-infection for determination of CFU in (b) lung (c) liver and (d) spleen. Data represent mean ± SD of six mice per group for each time point.
