Competing Interests
I have read the journal’s policy and have the following conflicts to declare. IMS and AB are employees of Chr. Hansen A/S, a manufacturer of probiotic products, and the described work was carried out at Chr. Hansen A/S facilities in Hørsholm, Denmark. This does not alter our adherence to PLOS ONE policies on sharing data and materials.
