Fig. 1

Effect of tannic acid (TA) on expression and localization of occludin protein in small intestine of weaned piglets (scale bar: 100 μm). The localization of tight junction protein occludin in duodenum (a), jejunum (b) and ileum (c) of weaned piglets was visualized using immunofluorescence technique. The localization of occludin (red), DAPI (blue), as well as merged occludin and DAPI are shown. DAPI stain indicates live cells. CON, piglets receiving a basal diet; CON + 0.2% TA, piglets receiving a basal diet supplemented with 0.2% TA; CON + 1.0% TA, piglets receiving a basal diet supplemented with 1.0% TA
