Figure 6

Omega-9 improved bacterial clearance in Swiss mice submitted to CLP. Animals were treated with omega-9 for 14 days. On the 15th day, CLP was performed, and 6 h (b) and 24 h (c) after, the peritoneal lavage was collected and plated on TSA-coated plates for CFU counts. Results are represented as individual values and median from at least 7 animals. In (a), there are representative photos of the exposed graph (c). and + compared to sham and sham + omega-9, respectively, and # compared to CLP.
