Survival curve of zebrafish embryos treated by immersion in E. tarda suspension. For each of the independent 7 experiments 20 embryos at 25 hpf were immersed for 5 h in 108 CFUs/ml of E. tarda or in clean egg water as a control. Subsequently embryos were washed and transferred to fresh egg water, and survival was monitored for 4 days. In one experiment, heat-killed bacteria (45 min at 95°C) were included as an extra control group. Survival varied between approximately 25 and 75%.
