Figure Lengend Snippet: Mean percentage growth inhibition 1 of pathogenic E. cecorum isolates (based on 2 biological replicates; n = 9) by 18 Bacillus cell-free supernatants, measured at a time-point equivalent to that which produced an optical density of 0.4 in the positive control. 1 Defined as the percentage reduction in pathogen isolate growth in the experimental sample compared with that in the respective PC sample (containing pathogen in BHI medium but no Bacillus CFS), with growth being measured as biomass (absorbance (OD)), not as CFU, and being determined at the time-point equivalent to that producing an OD of 0.4 in the PC. Thus, 90% inhibition would mean a 90% reduction in growth (biomass). a, b, c, d, e Bars with no common letters are significantly different ( P < 0.01).

doi: 10.1111/j.1469-7580.2011.01431.x

Figure Lengend Snippet: Schematic drawings of the time-interval change of the rete ovarii in MRL mice, from the lateral to the medial aspect. The direction of the arrows indicates the relative ovary position. AB, adipose body of the ovary; C, cyst; CR, the connecting rete; ER, the extraovarian rete; ER′, separated ER; H, hilus; IR, the intraovarian rete; OL, ovarian ligament. (A) Mice < 2 months old typically did not have a dilated IR. (B,C) MRL mice from 3 to 12 months of age. (B) Distal part of the ER becomes tracked towards the ovarian ligament and was disconnected in some mice. (C) In large cysts, ciliated cells (white arrows) appeared in the rete epithelium around the hilus. (D–E) Multiple cyst formation in a few MRL mice. (D) In the early phase, MRL mice with several ER tubules, as in the B6 mice, would be more resistant to ER inclusion than MRL mice with a singular and disconnected ER. (E) Eventually, several tubules of the ER form multiple ovarian cysts in the ovary and ovarian ligament.
