Colonization of zebrafish with bacteria. Zebrafish at 5 dpf were left uninfected (A) or colonized with mCherry expressing (B) E. coli or (C) S. enterica. Infection experiments may be performed in wild type (A and B) fish or transgenic lines (e.g., the line Tg(MPO::EGFP)i¹¹⁴ expressing green fluorescent neutrophils shown in (C). The rectal opening is marked by an arrow. (D) Higher magnification of intestinal section from whole-mount embedded larvae infected with Salmonella enterica infection. (Di) Blue = Hoechst marking nuclei, (Dii) Purple = phalloidin marking F-actin, (Diii) Red = Salmonella, (Div) merge. Scale bar = 5 μm.
