\subsection{Infection of \textit{B. dubia} with \textit{F. tularensis} LVS}
To determine if OS cockroach survival was proportional to the number of bacteria present in the infection inoculum, serial dilutions of \textit{F. tularensis} LVS were injected into into the hemocoel of juvenile cockroaches that measured greater than 1.5 cm in length.
Infected Following infection, cockroaches were housed at 37$^{\circ}$C and survival was monitored
for over the course of 7 days.
The Overall, the percentage of
cockroaches in each group that survived infection and the
rate rates of death were
dose-dependent; no OS dose-dependent. No cockroaches survived infection with
10^{5} 10^5 CFU of \textit{F. tularensis}
LVS and LVS, with all cockroaches
died in this group dead by day five
post-infection; post-infection (Figure 2). In comparison, 60 percent of cockroaches infected with 10^{4} CFU of \textit{F. tularensis} LVS survived through day seven
post-infection; post-infection (p=0.0141; compared to 10^5 CFU group) and 90 percent of cockroaches infected with 10^{3} CFU of \textit{F. tularensis} LVS survived through day seven
(Figure post-infection (p<0.001; compared to 10^5 CFU group; Figure 2). Injection of PBS alone did not result in any
cockroach deaths.
