Two-week old outbred female CD1 (Swiss) mice were fed a low Zn diet (Specialty Feeds, WA, Australia) for two weeks, with the acidified drinking water supplemented with either 0 ppm or 250 ppm ZnSO4. For challenge with S. pneumoniae strain D39, S. pneumoniae D39 pVA838-GFP, or its mutant derivatives, treatment cohorts, comprised of at least 5 mice, were anaesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of pentobarbital sodium at a dose of 66 μg.g body weight-1, followed by intranasal administration of 30 μL bacterial suspension containing approximately 1 107 CFU. The challenge dose was confirmed retrospectively by serial dilution and plating on blood agar. For survival experiments, mice were monitored regularly for signs of illness and euthanized once moribund. For determination of bacterial loads, at 24 or 36 hrs post-challenge, mice were euthanized by CO2 asphyxiation. Blood was collected by syringe from the posterior vena cava. The pleural cavity was lavaged through the diaphragm and the lungs through the trachea, both with 1 mL sterile PBS. Pulmonary vasculature was perfused by infusion of sterile PBS through the heart and lungs were subsequently excised. Lastly, the nasopharynx/upper palate was excised (nasopharyngeal tissue). Tissues were homogenized (Precellys Homogeniser) and all samples were serially diluted and plated on blood agar for bacterial counts. For metal ion determination by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), the tissues were homogenized, and all samples were boiled in HNO3 at the highest percentage achievable for the relevant niche, i.e. blood, and lung and nasopharyngeal tissue in 35% HNO3, and PL in 17.5% HNO3. Following removal of debris by centrifugation, samples were diluted to a final concentration of 3.5% HNO3. Metal ion detection by ICP-MS was perform on an Agilent 7500cx inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometer (Adelaide Microscopy).
