Figure 1

B. cenocepacia induces ruffling in the contact site with macrophages. The BMDM interaction with B. cenocepacia was evaluated by SEM. (a) Resting macrophage. (b) Selected image of a macrophage infected for 15 min with B. cenocepacia. The arrow indicates the B. cenocepacia localization and the arrowhead the membrane ruffling. The scale bar represents 10 m.
