  1. K value stands for the mean value, for example, K1a, K2a and K3a correspond to A are the mean values of factor A, at level 1, level 2, and level 3, respectively, and so on. R stand for range value, correspond to the different between the highest k value and the lowest k value. English letter A and B in rang analysis results stand for the results of C. butyricum DL-1 viable counts and spore yields, respectively
