Transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER). PSIc1.1 (not shown) and B1OXI cells (a and b) were seeded at 6 × 10⁵ cells/well, as functional cell models using 12-well Transwell plates. As confluent monolayers, cells were exposed to the selected probiotic bacteria (1 × 10⁸ CFU/mL) and C. jejuni (2 × 10⁸ CFU/mL) for 2 h. Error bars indicate the standard deviation from at least three independent experiments. Data are expressed as means ±SD. *P ≤ 0.01, versus control
