FIGURE 1.

Effect of the probiotic mixture in Fischer rats on (A) number of head dippings in the elevated plus maze test; (B) number of exit attempts in the light-dark box test; (C) immobility time (s) in the forced swimming test. C, control group (n = 10–12); M, group receiving the probiotic mixture (n = 11–12). The results are expressed as the mean ± SEM for the number of head dippings and immobility time and as the median and interquartile range for the number of exit attempts. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 vs. C.
