From: Immune regulation of a chronic bacteria infection and consequences for pathogen transmission
Mean serum antibody response (OD index ± S.E.) in infected and control rabbits by sampling week (WPI). Serum was collected twice from all individuals prior to infection (48 rabbits sampled at week -1) and weekly thereafter. Number of samples decreased with time of infection as groups of 6 individuals (4 infected and 2 controls) were regularly sacrificed. Sera were assayed individually.
