Zebrafish embryos are susceptible to Mycobacterium fortuitum infection in a dose-dependent manner. (A) Zebrafish embryos were injected with varying dosages of GFP-expressing M. fortuitum at 30 h post-fertilization via caudal vein injection. Embryo survival was monitored over a 12 day period. N = 20–25 embryos/group. Statistical analysis was completed using the log-rank (Mantel-Cox) statistical test for survival curves. Data shown is the merge of two independent experiments. (B) Representative images of zebrafish embryos infected with varying dosages of GFP-expressing M. fortuitum at 2 days post-infection. Green represents M. fortuitum. Scale bars represent 1 mm. **P ≤ 0.01, ***P ≤ 0.001.
