FIG 2 .

Conventionalization of female GF SW and C57BL/6 mice does not impact bone density. Female GF Swiss Webster (a) and C57BL/6 (b) mice and male GF Swiss Webster (c) mice were colonized with conventional mouse microbiota for 4 weeks (conventionalized [CONV-D]). The GF group served as the control. No differences in BVF were observed when conventionalized mice were compared to their GF counterparts. CONV-R, conventionally reared. The results for individual mice and mean values ± SEM (n = 3 to 10) are shown.
