Variance stabilizing transformation (vst) was performed before conducting PCA. Yellow star: Inoculum (n = 3); Black dot: after seven-day growth in cheese (n = 3); Blue dot: after seven-day growth in fish (n = 2); Red dot: after seven-day growth in sausage (n = 3); Black triangle: after passage through the GI model in cheese (n = 3); Blue triangle: after passage through the GI model in fish (n = 2); Red triangle: after passage through the GI model in sausage (n = 3).
