^aLipoprotein and oxysterol profiles were measured in a pooled sample of n = ten animals pr diet group. CV for the different assays, i.e., the analytical variance, as estimated by analyzing a control sample over 10 consecutive days: VLDL-CH: 8.1 %, LDL-CH: 3.4 %, HDL-CH: 5.0 %, VLDL-TAG: 13.1 %, LDL-TAG: 10.5 %, HDL-TAG: 9.7 %. CVs for all oxysterol assays are <8 %, except for 25-hydroxy-CH (11 %) ⁽²⁵⁾. Different letters denote diet groups that are significantly different
