Short chain fatty acids concentrations are not significantly affected in chicken cecal content following cold stress. Chickens were cold stressed at 4, 5, and 6 d of age as described in Methods. Short chain fatty acids (SCFA) (A) Acetic, (B) Propionic, and (C) Butyric acids were determined in chicken ceca content (n=8-10 chickens per group) using GC-MS as described in Methods. SCFA concentrations are reported in mg of SCFA per g of cecal content. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. Data was analyzed using 2-way ANOVA followed by Sidak post-hoc test. Statistical significance was set at P < 0.05. * = P < 0.05.
