Feeding duration (weeks) C B12R+ B12R
Plasma vitamin B12 (pg/mL) 4 565 ± 12a 184 ± 11b 253 ± 11c
12 406 ± 17.6a 138 ± 11.9b 208 ± 9.1c
Plasma folate (ng/mL) 4 26 ± 1.0 25.0 ± 1.1 27.0 ± 0.7
12 26.6 ± 1.37 27.3 ± 0.98 26.8 ± 1.29
Plasma homocysteine 4 3.9 ± 0.56a 9.7 ± 0.55b 8.0 ± 0.57b
12 4.2 ± 0.4a 10.5 ± 1.21b 8.7 ± 0.78c

Values are mean ± SEM (n = 6).

Values with different superscripts (a/b/c) are significantly different from one another at p < 0.05 by one-way ANOVA/Bonferroni’s post hoc test.
