Concentrations of organic acids in cecal content.
Organic acids (succinic, lactic, acetic, propionic, iso-butyric, n-butyric, iso-valeric and n-valeric acids) were measured via HPLC in the homogenates of cecal contents of (A) untreated or (B) DSS-treated rats. Significant differences in each organic acid were determined by Dunnett’s multiple comparison test (**P<0.01, ***P<0.001). Values are expressed as means ± SEM (n = 6).
