Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) of fecal samples. (A) Representative plot showing decrease in percent weight with increase in temperature (°Celsius;  °C) during the TGA of fecal samples under pyrolysis conditions. (B) Effect of heating rate on the change of mass with increasing temperature for conventional, germ-free and mouse FMT fecal samples. Data is depicted in dry ash free basis. (C) Derivative thermogravimetric plot for weight loss against increasing temperatures for three groups. (D) Percent residue fecal weights obtained from standard TGA curve for three groups. Repeated measures one-way ANOVA was performed for comparisons between the samples and ns = not significant.
