Dietary 12% RPS alleviates E. coli-induced bone loss in meat ducks. a Performance including body weight at 14 d and feed intake during 1 to 14 d, (b) tibia length and diameter, and (c) fat-free weight were determined. Bone quality was indicated by (d) tibia ash and (e) strength. f Representative micro CT images and the quantification of (g) bone volume/total volume (BV/TV) and (h) trabecular thickness (Tb.Th) of the proximal tibia. Data are expressed as mean and standard deviation. a,bMean values with different letters are significantly different by one-way analysis of variance followed by Tukey’s post hoc test (P < 0.05)
