qPCR enumeration of bacterial groups in fecal inocula and effluent samples of models’ reactors at the end of the stabilization period.

PC, proximal colon reactor; DC, distal colon reactor; IR, inoculum reactor; CR, control reactor; TR, test reactor; ND, not detected1Data are mean log10 copies 16S rRNA gene g-1 feces; samples were analyzed in duplicate.2Data are mean log10 copies 16S rRNA gene g-1 fermentation effluent ± SD of three last days at the end of the stabilization period; samples were analyzed in duplicate. Values with different letters are significantly different within one model (P qPCR enumeration of bacterial groups in fecal inocula and effluent samples of models’ reactors at the end of the stabilization period.
