Effects of Dietary Bile Acids on Growth Performance, Lipid Deposition, and Intestinal Health of Rice Field Eel (Monopterus albus) Fed with High-Lipid Diets

Figure 2

Effects of dietary bile acids (BAs) on the intestinal digestive capacity of rice field eel (Monopterus albus) fed with HLDs. Each data point represents the mean of four replicates (n = 4, mean ± SEM). Means between the CON and the HL group. Bars assigned with different superscripts are significantly different () among the HL, HLLB, and HLHB groups. Plinear means statistical results of orthogonal polynomial contrasts. Intestinal digestive enzyme: lipase (a), trypsin (b), and amylase (c) activities. Treatment groups: CON, control group; HL, high lipid diets group; HLLB, high lipid diets supplementing with 0.025% bile acid group; and HLHB, high lipid diets supplementing with 0.05% bile acid group.
