M. abscessus establishes chronic infection in adult zebrafish.

A Enumeration of CFUs from adult zebrafish infected with either the R or the S variant of M. abscessus. Each point represents a single experimental replicate with at least three animals per timepoint. Total n per timepoint: 0 dpi R = 13 S = 12; 7 dpi R = 18 S = 12; 14 dpi R = 17 S = 13; 28 dpi R = 15 S = 12. B Relative CFUs recovered from adult zebrafish infected with either the R or the S variant of M. abscessus. Absolute CFU values were normalised to the inoculum CFU for each experimental replicate. Data are pooled from three replicates per M. abscessus variant. Total n per timepoint: 0 dpi R = 13 S = 12; 7 dpi R = 18 S = 12; 14 dpi R = 17 S = 13; 28 dpi R = 15 S = 12. Statistical tests by two-sided Student’s t test at each timepoint. Data are presented as mean values ± SD. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
