NOD mice given antibiotics carry a microbiota that produces fewer short-chain fatty acids. The fecal content of NOR mice contains more acetic acid than NOD mice and antibiotic treatment further reduces the acetic acid content. Vancomycin, but not neomycin, treatment reduces the amount of propionic and butyric acids found in the cecal content (n=12 mice/group). *P<0.05 and ***P<0.001 by one way analysis of variance with Tukey's post hoc test for parametric data and Kruskal-Wallis test with Dunn's post hoc test for non parametric data.
