MOESM1 of RNA-Seq based transcriptome of whole blood from immunocompetent pigs (Sus scrofa) experimentally infected with Mycoplasma suis strain Illinois

Additional file 1. Results of Mycoplasma suis microbead immunoassay (MIA). Median Fluorescence Intensity (MFI) of Mycoplasma suis-infected and sham-inoculated pigs as detected in serum samples collected along the experiment. Serum antibodies were measured using recombinant GrpE (rGrpE) protein in a MIA [30]. Sham-inoculated group (control group): pig #1, pig #2 and pig #3. M. suis-inoculated group (infected group): pig #5, pig #6, pig #7. Day 0 corresponds to inoculation day. MFI cut-off was 74.07. It is important to note that a high cut-off may have been encountered due to the low number of animals to determine a cut-off, which increases the standard deviation. MFI values in bold correspond to positive results based on cut-off values for each group. ND: not done.
