Significant changes in plasma differential metabolites were observed in the CN, CN-LPS and MLP-LPS groups. Significance was calculated by the Kruskal–Wallis H test. * means P < 0.05, ** means P < 0.01 and *** means P < 0.001. CN, Basal diet; CN-LPS, Basal diet + LPS; MLP-LPS, Basal diet + MLP + LPS
