Figure 4. Delivery via pellet results in less circulating corticosterone than via oral gavage.

A: Experimental design for determining the differences in stress between oral gavage and voluntary consumption as FMT delivery techniques. B: Concentration of circulating corticosterone in mice from each group. One-way ANOVA post hoc Tukey’s Multiple Comparisons Test (b); ns = no significance, # = trending, and *p ≤ 0.05. Values represent mean ± SEM.
