Effect of oil (left) and type of emulsifier (right) on the bacterial family composition in cecum as assessed by Principal Component Analysis. Score-plots (A and D), Loading plots (B and E), and differences in PC1 for the oil effect (C) and PC2 for the emulsifier effect (F) calculated using an unpaired t-test with Welch’s correction. Asterisks indicate significant differences (*p < 0.05). PC: Principal Component, MPL: Milk phospholipids, CO: Coconut oil, RO, Rapeseed oil, SL: Soy lecithin.
