Experimental design and faecal bacteria shedding. (a) Schematic representation of Gn pig study. HGM, human gut microbiota; PPD, post-partum day; PID, post inoculation day. (b) HGM colonization in Gn pigs. Concentrations of culturable aerobic bacteria were measured in serial dilution of pig faeces and enumeration of colony-forming unit (c.f.u.) grown on lysogeny broth (LB) media agar plates. Data were combined from four independent experiments and presented as individual animal data points. Sample sizes are shown in Table 1.
