InSeMP mushroom powder supplemented with inorganic selenium, orgSeMP mushroom powder enriched with organic selenium
¹Dietary treatments: (1) Basal diet; (2) basal diet + inSeMP containing an inorganic selenium (selenite) content of 0.3 mg/kg feed and a β-glucan content of 650 mg/kg feed; (3) basal diet + orgSeMP containing an organic selenium (selenocysteine) content of 0.3 mg/kg feed and a β-glucan content of 650 mg/kg feed
²A total of 8 replicates were used per treatment
^a−bMean values within a row with unlike superscript letters were significantly different (P < 0.05)
