  1. 1 Mean and total SEM are list in Separate columns, n = 6
  2. 2 CON, pigs were fed with a basal diet; CA, pigs were gavaged every day with 1 × 1011 CFU/10 mL A. muciniphila (DSM 22959); DCON, pigs were fed with a basal diet and challenged by DSS; DA, pigs were gavaged every day with 1 × 1011 CFU/10 mL A. muciniphila (DSM 22959) and challenged by DSS
  3. a, b mean values within a row with unlike superscript letters were significantly different, P < 0.05
