M. marinum-induced adult zebrafish with red lesions & squamous eruptions on dorsal and lateral sides observed during the study.

Percentage body weight reduction observed in groups control-uninfected, I, II, III (Mean ± S.E.M., n = 10) on days 7 and 14 during the bacterial optimization study of M. marinum-induced adult zebrafish model. The statistical significance (p < 0.05, ∗∗p < 0.01 and ∗∗∗p < 0.001) with respect to un-infected control group has been analyzed by one-way ANOVA using GraphPad Prism Software.

A. Mean body weight changes observed (Mean ± S.E.M., n = 10) with respective days post infection for all the groups during the study of M. marinum-induced adult zebrafish model.

B. Percentage body weight reduction (Mean ± S.E.M., n = 10) over the study period for control and treated groups of M. marinum-induced adult zebrafish model. The statistical significance (p < 0.05, ∗∗p < 0.01 and ∗∗∗p < 0.001) with respect to un-infected control group has been analyzed by one-way ANOVA using GraphPad Prism Software.
