a

Ratio of staining intensities of major bands as a proportion of total fingerprint intensity (shown as a percentage). Values that were significantly different are shown in boldface type.

b

Statistically significantly different from the value for hamsters fed 0% GSL (P < 0.05) by ANOVA.

c

Statistically significantly different from the value for hamsters fed 1% GSL (P < 0.05) by ANOVA.

d

The GenBank accession number and species or clone is shown. The values in parentheses are the percentages of similarity.

e

The closest type strain is shown first. The GenBank accession number is shown in brackets. The values in parentheses are the percentages of similarity.

f

ND, not determined.
