Biofilm bacteria adherent to rat and human tissues visualized by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) probes (red). Blue is the reflected light from the tissue. A1-I1 represent FISH and A2-I2 represent the corresponding H&Es. A1,A2) Rat TANE tissue (negative control) shows absence of E.coli staining within the tissue B1, B2) Rat BE tissue shows presence of E.coli single cells and in clusters attached to the tissue; C1, C2) Rat EAC tissue shows presence of E. coli single cells and in clusters attached to the tissue; D1,D2) Human TANE tissue (negative control) shows absence of S. pneumonia staining within the tissue;E1,E2) Human BE tissue shows presence of S. pneumonia single cells and in clusters attached to the tissue; F1,F2) Human EAC tissue shows presence of S. pneumonia single cells and in clusters attached to the tissue; G1,G2) Human TANE tissue (negative control) shows absence of E.coli staining within the tissue; H1,H2) Human BE tissue shows presence of E.coli single cells attached to the tissue; I1,I2) Human EAC tissue shows presence of E.coli single cells and in clusters attached to the tissue. All H&Es are represented at 10X magnification
