Total fecal mucin output (mg/d) in LPS challenged and unchallenged pigs fed high or low fiber with graded dietary threonine. Total fecal mucin output was estimated using determined mucin concentration in feces and estimated total fecal output based on previously determined dry matter digestibility. A total of 9 replicate pigs/treatment were used in the analysis. There was a significant effect of fiber (P < 0.05) with no effect of Thr or period (P > 0.05) on total fecal mucin output
