Figure 4

Effect of emulsifier on short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) production in cecum of mice at Day 14 after emulsion consumption. Levels of SCFAs are illustrated as percentages of total SCFAs. (A) Acetic acid, (B) Propionic acid, (C) Butyric acid, (D) iso-valeric acid, (E) iso-butyric acid, and (F) Caprioic acid. Differences between groups were calculated using unpaired t-test with Welch correction. Asterisks indicate significant differences (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01). MPL: Milk phospholipids, RO, Rapeseed oil, SL: Soy lecithin.
