Figure 1. Antibiotic-treated mouse model treated with and without probiotic VSL#3®. Mouse model in which mice (n = 16) were randomly assigned to two groups. Antibiotic-treated mice were given cefoperazone in drinking water for 5 days and then a 2-day washout. Each group was challenged orally with VSL#3® or PBS on day 0 and monitored post challenge for 7 days. Necropsy of mice was done on day 7 post challenge (n = 8 mice per treatment group, 4 males and 4 females). PBS: Phosphate-buffered saline.
