Figure 2. Concentrations of short chain fatty acids (SCFA) in human mucus samples from CRS with acute exacerbation vs healthy controls.

Figure 2.

All 3 SCFAs were significantly higher in CRS (n = 9) compared to control (n = 6): 1) acetate = 0.89 +/− 0.19 versus 0.39 +/ 0.04 mM (p < 0.05); 2) propionate = 0.01 +/− 0.00 versus 0.0045 +/− 0.00 (p < 0.0001); 3) butyrate = 0.002 +/− 0.00 versus 0.0008 +/− 0.00 (p < 0.01).
