Figure 1From: Protection from reinfection in “Candidatus Mycoplasma turicensis”-infected cats and characterization of the immune responseCMt blood loads in fifteen SPF cats after CMt inoculation. Cats in groups A (A) and B (B) were inoculated subcutaneously at day 0 and were monitored for 83 days. CMt blood loads (y-axes) are expressed as the log copy numbers per mL of blood. The cats in group A showed no detectable bacteremia upon CMt inoculation, whereas the cats in group B became CMt PCR-positive after an average of 19 days (range: 17–21 days).Back to article page
