Figure 2From: The pathogenicity of swan derived H5N1 virus in birds and mammals and its gene analysisSurvival curves for mice inoculated with the SW/3/06 virus. Female 5-week-old BALB/c mice (five per group) were inoculated i.n. or i.m. with 104.0 EID50/50 μl of the SW/3/06 virus. Although they had equivalent mortality rates (100%), the i.m. inoculated group had significantly longer survival than the i.n. inoculated group (log-rank test, P =0.0005).Back to article page
