Figure Lengend Snippet: Male ( A-E ) and female ( F-J ) wildtype mice were orally exposed with 3mg/kg deltamethrin or corn oil vehicle, 1x weekly for 12 weeks. Prior to exposure, and at 6 and 12wks, stool was subjected to 16S microbiome profiling. ( A, B, F, G ) Alpha diversity measurements for Chao1 ( A, F ) and Simpson indexes ( B, G ). ( C, H ) PCA plots of Bray-Curtis beta diversity measures. ( D, I ) Genera composition charts. ( E, J ) Select genera displaying time or treatment effects (see Supplemental Table S1). N=8; A, B, E,-G, J points represent mean and bars the standard error. C, H points represent individuals. A, B, F, G data assessed by mixed-effects REML and post-hoc Fisher’s tests, with lines indicating between group differences. * p ≤0.05; ** p ≤0.01
Article Snippet: Samples were then subjected to 16S sequencing and analysis as we have performed previously( ) via full service 16S sequencing / analysis through the ZymoBIOMICS pipeline (Zymo, Inc; Irvine CA).
