FIG. 6.
Effect of AG on bacterial numbers in the blood (A), spleens (B), and kidneys (C) of mice which were infected with a lethal dose of S. aureus. Mice received sterilized drinking water containing 1% (wt/vol) AG from day −3 of infection until the mice were sacrificed (hatched bars). The control animals were given drug-free water (filled bars). Each result represents the mean ± standard deviation of data for a group of three to five mice. An asterisk indicates a significant difference for the unstimulated group at a P value of <0.05.
