Fig. 4
A–D Stacked bars plot of average AUCT in equivalents of amine groups (µg/mL *min) of total amino acids. A Effect of enzyme supplementation (no treatment (Controls), treatment with Creon® or Amylase) on Healthy pigs; B effect of enzyme supplementation (no treatment (Controls), treatment with Creon® or Amylase) on EPI pigs; Effect of different MMTT compositions on Healthy (C) and EPI pigs (D). Different colors given within the bars show the most probable composition (absolute values) of the blood appearance of free amino acids (black) and amino acids derived from dipeptides (pink) and tripeptides (green). AUCT is presented as the sum of AUCs for the free amino acids equivalent (AUCF), AUC for the dipeptide-derived amino acids equivalent (AUCDD) and AUC for the tripeptide-derived amino acids equivalent (AUCTD). Values are presented as Mean ± SD, differences were considered significant when p > 0.05, p values are given with the result bars. Different small letters written inside the result bars present significant differences for separate bar components. Any bar depicts 100% of amine groups after algorithm calculation.
