Graph representing bacterial load following i.n infection with⁶⁴Cu labeled F. tularensis subsp. novicida. In order to determine the presence of viable ⁶⁴Cu labeled F. tularensis subsp. novicida in different tissues after infection, bacterial burden assays were performed. Data represent the mean with range of two mice and are given as Log CFU/g of tissue. Lung, liver, bladder and blood were harvested at 20 hrs p.i. ⁶⁴Cu labeled F. tularensis subsp. novicida was isolated from all the tissues analyzed at this time point.
