Intestinal morphology (200×) of duodenum in mice with dysbacteriosis induced by ceftriaxone sodium and the alleviation of treatments. A villus height, B crypt depth, C villus height to crypt depth ratio (VH/CD). BC: Blank Control, CS: Ceftriaxone Sodium, CS + LP: Ceftriaxone Sodium + Lactobacillus Plantarum, CS + BD: Ceftriaxone Sodium + Buzhongyiqi decoction, CS + SD: Ceftriaxone Sodium + Sijunzi decoction, CS + SHD: Ceftriaxone Sodium + Shenlingbaizhu decoction, CS + FBD: Ceftriaxone Sodium + fermented Buzhongyiqi decoction, CS + FSD: Ceftriaxone Sodium + fermented Sijunzi decoction and CS + FSHD: Ceftriaxone Sodium + fermented Shenlingbaizhu decoction. a, b, c, dLabeled means in the bars without a common letter were significantly different (p < 0.05).
