I was wondering whether you would spot that. However there is a good explanation for the 'failure' of bifido treated rats in the swim test. This was a poorly designed trial because it didn't use 'depressed' rats, just normal rats. It was a bit like giving an antidepressant to normal people and seeing if they felt any less depressed.

I note that you conveniently ignored the rat trial that did use depressed rats and did produce a reversal of depressive behaviour.
