Results from 16S rRNA sequencing. A Alpha diversity, Observed OTUs adjusted p = 0.016 and Shannon index adjusted p = 0.55. B Beta diversity, unweighted unifrac PCoA p = 0.018; weighted unifrac PCoA p = 0.02. C Relative abundance in phyla. The phylum Actinobacteria *p < 0.05, and Proteobacteria *p < 0.05 increased in the sepsis group. D Relative abundance in class. The class Clostridia decreased *p < 0.05, Actinobacteria *p < 0.05 and Gammaproteobacteria *p < 0.05 classes increased in the sepsis group. The results are expressed as the mean ± SEM for n = 5 rats
