Analysis of the HTF-Microbi.Array fluorescence signals. A: PCA of the HTF-Microbi.Array fluorescence signals. Atopy or health status were considered as dummy environmental variables (green triangles) and indicated as atopic and control, respectively. Atopic subjects and healthy controls are indicated by gray circles and red squares, respectively. Second and third ordination axes are plotted showing 6.4% and 3.3% of the total variability in the dataset, respectively. B: Comparison of the HTF-Microbi.Array probe fluorescence signals between atopics and controls. Only probes showing a different trend between the two groups (P < 0.3) are shown.
