R. equi (log CFU/mL) after 0.5 mL of serum or plasma collected with different AC (ACD, K2EDTA, Li Heparin, and Na Citrate) were mixed with 1.5 mL of BHI containing 1–3 × 104 CFU/mL of R. equi for 32 h at 37 ºC. CFU/mL were counted immediately after mixing (T0) and 6, 12, 18, 24, and 32 h thereafter. BHI, and BHI/PBS were added as controls. Asterisks (*) indicate significant change in CFU/mL from T0 (p < 0.05) by group. Different letters denote significant (p < 0.05) differences in CFU/mL between groups at a specific timepoint
