Phenotypic and genetic analysis of zinc associated genes. (A) Survival assays at 90 minutes performed in pooled human plasma (PHP) and heat-inactivated pooled human plasma (HI-PHP) shows that percent survival statistically significantly increases with higher concentrations of zinc in PHP. (B) Survival assays at 120 minutes show an increase in survival in PHP with the addition of zinc. (C) A heatmap outlining the differential expression of 5 genes associated with zinc survival shows four up regulated (green) genes and one down regulated genes (red).
