Effects of LAB on body size and pharynx pumping of C. elegans. A and B Body size (area) of C. elegans treated with LAB and C. jejuni on day 8. Day 0 marked the arrival of the nematodes at the L4 stage before being fed thallus. C Effects of LAB on the pharynx pumping of C. elegans infected by C. jejuni. Pharynx pumping (per 30s) of C. elegans treated with LAB and C. jejuni on day 8. All day 0 marked the arrival of the nematodes at the L4 stage before being fed thallus. The graphs show means ± SDs. Column labelled with different superscript letters (a, b) showed significant differences (p < 0.05). Any two columns with same superscript letter
