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 3

Effects of dietary bile acids (BAs) on the intestinal antioxidant 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, means . Bars assigned with different superscripts are significantly different () among the HL, HLLB, and HLHB groups. P_linear means statistical results of orthogonal polynomial contrasts. Intestinal antioxidant enzyme: MDA (a), T-SOD (b), GSH-PX (c), CAT (d), and T-AOC (e) activities. MDA, malondialdehyde; T-SOD, total superoxide dismutase; GSH-PX, glutathione peroxidase; CAT, catalase; and T-AOC, total antioxidant capacity. 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.
