  1. The data is presented by ratio of organ to body weight by mean ± SD. (**, p < 0.05).
  2. Groups are matched with experimental design in Method section. Con: the control group with orally administration of PBS. PL16: the protection group with administration of L16 strain before Staphylococcus aureus infection. TL16: the treatment group with administration of L16 strain after Staphylococcus aureus infection. Mod: murine model group with Staphylococcus aureus infection daily for 1 week.
