Pathogenicity of E. faecalis D32 and UW7709 in a Galleria mellonella model. Death rates of G. mellonella larvae after injection with E. faecalis strains D32 (real infectious dose: 1.7 × 105 CFU per larvae) and UW7709 (real infectious dose: 2.8 × 105 CFU per larvae), respectively. PBS injection served as a negative control. One representative experiment of three independent experiments is shown. Data are displayed by as Kaplan-Meier plot survival curves. Statistical significance (p < 0.05) was determined by the Log-rank (Mantel-Cox) test.
