Salmon gut in vitro simulator. Schematic encompasses the artificial gut model system set-up, in vivo and in vitro feed trial set up. A is a schematic representation of SalmoSim system with transfer rate of 238 mL per day for each bioreactor. B SalmoSim feed trial design. C SalmoSim sampling time points, which include definition of stable time points (days 16, 18, and 20 for Fishmeal (once bacterial communities had time to adapt to SalmoSim system) and days 36, 38, and 40 for Fishmeal-free diet (once bacterial communities had time to adapt to change in feed)). D in vivo feed trial design. FMD, Fishmeal diet; FMF, Fishmeal-free diet. E Real salmon sacrificed for non-inoculum and inoculum samples (9 fish in total)
