Figure 7. Effect of adult stress on faecal counts of aerobic bacteria and Bacteroides.

Figure 7

Effect of exposure to stress in adulthood (week 12) on faecal counts of aerobic bacteria and Bacteroides (Log CFU/gr, least squares means+SE). The hollow bars represent animals exposed to no adult stress (NA): Aerobes NA (n = 72), Bacteroides NA (n = 67). The filled bars represent animals exposed to adult stress (AS): Aerobes AS (n = 75), Bacteroides AS (n = 75). An asterisk (*) indicates statistical significant difference (p≤0.05).
