Figure 2.
Bacterial loads in fecal microbiota as measured by qPCR (log10 copies/g fresh feces). The total bacteria were detected in the short-term and long-term treatment, while other predominant fecal microbiota were only detected in long-term treatment. Graph values are reported as the mean and standard deviation of the mean. Comparisons among the groups were calculated with Student's t-tests. P < 0.05 was labeled; ∗ compared with healthy control; # compared with AAD mice model; & compared with saline control; ∇ compared with C. butyricum treated group; ∙ compared with B. infantis treated group.
