Mice were infected intranasally approximately with 5 × 106 CFU/mouse either with PlacA-luc:wt or PgalK-luc:wt. Animals were scanned either at 4 h or 32 h post-infection. Bioluminescence was quantified after subcutaneous luciferin injection. Experiments were done twice using a total of 10 mice for each group. Here representative images are given. The graph depicts the relative light unit (RLU) normalized against the colony-forming units for readings at 4 h. Data represent the mean RLU derived from 10 mice with SEM and were analyzed using a two-sided t test, ***p = 0.0003. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
