Fig. 5

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining of immune cells for the different treatments in time. In all graphs, the horizontal axis depicts the experimental condition (treatment and time) and the vertical axis the number of cells per square millimetre of jejunal tissue. Left upper panel depicts CD4+ cells, right upper panel shows the CD8+ cells, and the lower left panel represents the KUL01+ cells. In total there are 5 treatment-day combinations consisting of up to 8 points, where each point represents 1 pool consisting of 10 chicken. At each time point eight measurements were performed, i.e. the spread depicted here is the average between pens. Abbreviations: WA1, without antibiotic day 1; WA5, without antibiotic day 5; A5, with antibiotic day 5; WA14, without antibiotic day 14; A14, with antibiotic day 14
