Bar Plot from Scientific Research

Special pathogen-free C57BL/6J mice were either mock treated (−) or given a single dose of streptomycin (20 mg/animal) by oral gavage (+). The next day, mice were either mock inoculated, inoculated with 109 CFU of E. coli Nissle 1917 (wild type [WT]), or 109 CFU of an E. coli Nissle 1917 cydA mutant (cydA). 1 day later, mice were challenged with 105 CFU of C. albicans (strain ATCC28367), and organs were collected 2 days later. (E) Shown are geometric means (bars) ± geometric standard deviation (error bars) of E. coli CFU recovered from feces or cecal contents at the indicated time points relative to C. albicans challenge. (A and C–E) Each symbol represents data from one animal. NS, not significant defined as p> 0.05;∗p< 0.05;∗∗p< 0.005;∗∗∗p< 0.0005. See also Figure S1.
