Figure 2From: Innate immune response in experimentally induced bovine intramammary infection with Staphylococcus simulans and S. epidermidisBacterial elimination from infected quarters in experimental S. epidermidis (-○-) and S. simulans (-●-) intramammary infection during the two-week study period ( n = 8 + 8). Infection persisted in 11 out of 16 quarters. The amount of bacteria is expressed as a natural logarithm (ln) of cfu/mL.Back to article page
