Movie 1

Movie 2
Time lapse of daily RIF (left) or INH (right) treatment (regimen 1a) of the granuloma described in Figure 6A. Dosing starts when labels appear.


Time lapse of daily RIF (left) or INH (right) treatment (regimen 1a) of the granuloma described in Figure 6B. Dosing starts when labels appear.



Movie 3

Movie 4
Time lapse of daily RIF (left) or INH (right) dynamics over 2 dosing periods in the granuloma described in Figure 6A. Scale is 0 to 0.5 mg/L for INH and 0 - 10 mg/L for RIF.
