Quantification of zebrafish gut infection and antibody levels in response to M. marinum infection. Zebrafish were treated with a combination of MET, p23 and NPF (Mix) tick salivary biomolecules and compared with PBS control group. (A) Infection levels were quantified by qPCR using the 16 S ribosomal RNA (16 S rRNA) gene fragment. (B) IgM antibody titers against M. bovis P22 protein complex were determined by ELISA. Significant differences between treatments and PBS control are shown with post-hoc Pairwise Mann–Whitney p-values (* p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001).
