Fig. 5

Total short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) and butyrate concentrations in the cecum, proximal colon and distal colons of mice gavaged with PBS (CR−) and inoculated with C. rodentium (CR+) and consuming the control diet, or a diet enriched with wheat bran (WB) or resistant starch (RS). a Total SCFA concentrations in the cecum. b Total SCFA concentrations in the proximal colon. c Total SCFA concentrations in the distal colon. d Butyrate concentrations in the distal colon. Vertical lines associated with histogram bars represent the standard error of the mean (n = 4). *Different (P ≤ 0.050) from the corresponding CN treatment. ●●Difference (P ≤ 0.010) relative to CR+ mice
