Transmission electron micrographs (TEM) of P. aeruginosa within macrophages. J774 macrophages were infected with P. aeruginosa wild-type strain or oprF mutant for 50 min after phagocytosis and subjected to TEM to visualize intracellular bacteria. For the wild-type strain, most of bacteria were found inside membrane bound vacuoles (A–C) whereas oprF mutant was mostly found in phagolysosomes (D–F). (B) and (C) are showing details of the cell shown in (A) (white rectangles) at higher magnification, (E) and (F) show details of the cell shown in (D) (white rectangles).
