DNA histogram of the cell cycle in the small intestinal epithelium of weaned pigs fed diets containing or lacking alginate oligosaccharide. The first peak in the DNA histogram of the small intestinal epithelium cell cycle is in G₀/G₁ phase, the second peak is in G₂ + M phase, and S phase lies between these two peaks. CON, control (a corn-soybean basal diet); AOS, alginate oligosaccharide (the basal diet supplemented with 100 mg/kg alginate oligosaccharide). 7-AAD, 7-aminoactinomycin D
