^aOptical density (A₆₀₀) was measured after 24 h of growth. Bacterial growth in barley β-glucan (0.2% [wt/vol]) medium is reported as mean A₆₀₀ of bacterial cultures (n = 3) with standard deviation (SD). The ratio between the mean A₆₀₀ of bacterial cultures grown in barley β-glucan medium and basal medium (n = 3) is given. P values of <0.05 were considered statistically significant. P values are shown only when the A₆₀₀ ratio is >1.

^bNS, not significant.
