Changes in the microbial composition of colonic digesta with SPH treatment (n = 8). A The abundance-based coverage estimator (ACE), Chao index, and (B) the Simpson and Shannon index of colonic microbiota. C Principal coordinates analysis plots (PCoA) of colonic microbiota. D Relative abundance of the microbial phylum and (E) different phyla (Mann–Whitney U-test; median values). F Relative abundance of the microbial genus and (G) different genera (Mann–Whitney U-test; median values). H Analysis of the Venn diagram reveals the total number of OTUs both shared and unique. I Significantly different OTUs bubble chart. * P < 0.05
