A Postbiotic Positively Shifts the Canine Oral Microbiome

= .9). Canine oral health postbiotic reduced the abundance of 9 times as many taxa as the placebo, including taxa that form biofilms and produce VSCs. The placebo reduced the abundance of only one taxon, which is not associated with biofilms or VSCs. The findings provide evidence for COHP's ability to promote a positive shift in the canine oral microbiome, and, together with previous results, provides evidence that it may broadly help to maintain canine oral health.
