Scatterplot showing the number of days it took for chinchillas inoculated with the 10 clinical NTHi strains to develop moderate or worse (score =/> 2) local (otologic) disease. X-axis = the clinical NTHi strains (PittAA-PittJJ, left to right); Y-axis = the days post inoculation that moderate or worse local disease developed.Back to article page
