Table 2 The 20 colonic bacterial genera with greatest increase or decrease in abundance in rats fed a FOS inulin-supplemented diet (F2.5), and their abundance in other diet supplemented groups. BF = basal feed; C2.5 = C. crispus 2.5 %; C0.5 = C. crispus 0.5 %; F2.5 = FOS Inulin 2.5 %; F0.5 = FOS Inulin 0.5 %

  1. aFold change represents the relative abundance of the bacterial genus in rats fed seaweed- or inulin-supplemented diets compared with the basal diet; values were calculated from the microarray hybridization scores derived from fluorescence intensity. C2.5, Chondrus crispus 2.5 % (dry w/w); C0.5, 0.5 %; F2.5, FOS inulin 2.5 %; F0.5, 0.5 %
