    Adhesion to human intestinal mucus of the probiotics strains Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and Bifodobacterium animalis ssp. lactis Bb12 in the presence of increasing concentrations (0, 0.1, 0.5, and 1mg/mL) of the exopolysaccharide (EPS) fraction isolated from the commercial fermented milk, viili. Bars with different superscript letters within each plot are significantly different (P<0.05).
