Effect of dietary rice bran on Salmonella fecal shedding of mice. Fecal shedding was examined in Salmonella infected animals fed control, 10% and 20% rice bran diet for 3 weeks (one week prior and 2 weeks post challenge). Data are shown as mean ± standard deviation of mean log₁₀ CFU per gram of feces (n = 5 mice/diet group), and data are representative of three independently conducted experiments. Repeated measures ANOVA and post hoc Tukey’s test were applied. Significance is shown by * (P < 0.05) and ** (P < 0.01).
