Figure 7

Mice receiving recombinant phage (25 μg/mouse), wild-type phage (mock group; 25 μg/mouse), HK-SG (108 yeast cells/mouse), and PBS (100 μg/mouse) four times at weekly intervals followed by intravenous challenge with 1 × 108 viable S. globosa. 1 week after the last exposure to antigen. Statistical test at day 15: recombinant-phage-immunized group vs. PBS-injected group: P = 0.005; HK-SG-immunized group vs. PBS-injected group: P = 0.044; wild-type phage-immunized group vs. PBS-injected group: P = 0.79 (by log-rank test). RP: recombinant phage, MOCK: wild-type phage. HK-SG: heat-killed S. globosa.
