*values in row are significantly different by T-test
The percents of assayed fatty acids of liver and mammary gland at 21 and 130 days old are shown. The results of T-tests between each pair of treatments for each tissue and time-point are shown, n = 3 to 5 mice per diet per time point. A p < 0.05 is taken to be statistically significant and is further indicated by an *
