Transurethral inoculation of E. coli causes UTI. a Representative image of mouse bladder (blue arrow) following successful transurethral inoculation of Evans Blue dye. b 72 h post-infection, urine was aseptically collected to enumerate bacterial burden as colony forming unit (cfu) which showed significantly increased bacterial count in the UTI group compared to the control group (n = 5/group). c Mean weights of mice on the day of inoculation (day 0) and 72 h post-inoculation (day 3) indicate no significant weight loss due to UTI. Quantitative data are expressed in mean ± SD, ****p < 0.0001
