Figure Lengend Snippet: Survival curves of Tenebrio molitor larvae challenged with enteropathogenic bacteria. ( A ) Survival curves of larvae infected with Escherichia coli 042. Groups include PBS control, M2 alone, infection alone ( E. coli 042), prophylactic treatment (M2 administered 2 h before infection), and post-infection treatment (M2 administered 2 h after infection). ( B ) Survival curves of larvae infected with Salmonella enterica ATCC 13076. Groups include PBS control, M2 alone, infection alone ( S. enterica ), prophylactic treatment, and post-infection treatment. Survival was monitored daily for 10 days.
Article Snippet: To validate the test conditions, standard reference strains Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 27853 were used as quality controls.
