From: Exploring the bone sparing effects of postbiotics in the post-menopausal rat model
The effect of postbiotics (supernatant and bacterial lysate) on the bone mineral content (BMC) of global (a), spine (b), femur (c) and tibia (d) of ovariectomized rats, 4 weeks after treatment. All differences were considered significant at P < 0.05. *: Control group vs OVX group; * (P < 0.05). †: OVX group vs probiotic groups; †(P < 0.05), ††(P < 0.01), †††(P < 0.001). $: Supernatant groups vs Lysate groups; $ (P < 0.05), $$ (P < 0.01). #: Probiotic groups vs Control group; # (P < 0.05), ## (P < 0.01): Probiotic groups vs Control. OVX: ovariectomized rats, LBC: Lactobacillus casei, BB: Bifidobacterium longum, BCO: Bacillus coagulans, LBA: Lactobacillus acidophilus, LBR: Lactobacillus reuteri
