Recall memory response results in an enhanced killing of <i>F. tularensis</i> SchuS4.

Abstract

<p>The BMDMs were infected with <i>F. tularensis</i> SchuS4 and co-incubated with the splenocytes from naïve, <i>FTL_0325</i> or <i>FTL_0304</i> immunized mice. The BMDMs were lysed 72 hrs PI, diluted 10-fold and plated on MH-chocolate agar plates to determine the intracellular bacterial replication. The results were expressed as log₁₀ CFU/ml and are representative of two independent experiments. The data were analyzed using ANOVA with Tukey-Kramer Multiple Comparison post-test and <i>P</i> values were recorded. ***<i>P<</i>0.001.</p
