Figure 7 PLS-DA analysis. It is a method of testing the similarity and differences between groups. At the OTU level, IPR and GI sample scatters show the far distance from the ZPC samples. Therefore, there are statistical differences among these experimental groups. OTU – operational taxonomic unit; IPR – ICON permeable resin; GI – glass-ionomer; ZPC – zinc phosphate cement.
