Fig. 6From: Sodium butyrate improves antioxidant stability in sub-acute ruminal acidosis in dairy goatsEffect of sodium butyrate on lipid peroxidation, total antioxidant capacity and antioxidant enzyme activity in the plasma of goats fed the HG compared with HG alone and LG . a MDA. b T-AOC. c Total SOD activity. d GPx activity. e Catalase activity. All enzyme activities and biomarkers were evaluated spectrophotometrically, and the results are expressed as the mean ± SEM. Data were analysed by mixed model in SAS (SAS version 9.2, SAS Institute Inc., USA) and are expressed as the mean ± S.E.M. **P < 0.01, * P < 0.05. HG = high grain; LG = low grain; MDA = malondialdehyde; T-AOC = total antioxidant capacity; TSOD = total superoxide dismutase; GPx = glutathione peroxidase; CAT = catalaseBack to article page
