  1. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM, n = 6. CON control group, LPS-CON piglets challenged with LPS, LPS-GOS piglets fed with GOS and challenged with LPS. MDA malondialdehyde, ROS reactive oxygen species, GSH-Px glutathione peroxidase, SOD superoxide dismutase, T-AOC total antioxidant capacity. P values < 0.05 were considered significant, P values between 0.05 and 0.10 were considered as a tendency. Different superscript lowercase letters on the same line indicate significant differences (P < 0.05)
