Crypt depth and ratio between villus height and crypt depth in the intestinal tract of mated female mice fed experimental diets. Values are means ± SE; n = 12 for GD 3, n = 7–12 for each treatment (GD 4 through GD 7); CON = control diet, SDP1 = 1% spray-dried plasma diet, SDP8 = 8% spray-dried plasma diet. D, diet; T, time; D x T, interaction between diet and time. **Different between CON and each other treatment (SDP1 and 8), P < 0.05. §Different between CON and SDP 8, P < 0.05. †Different between CON and SDP1, P < 0.05. No differences were found between SDP1 and SDP8
