The daily body weights and rectal temperatures in the control group (Con), which received saline, and in the treatment group (LPS), which received lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from S. Enteritidis at a dose of 5 μg/kg body weight (b.w.); n = 5 pigs/group. (A) The body weights were determined once a day in the morning (between 07:00 and 07:30). The first measurement was before premedication and LPS or NaCl administration (day 0), and the final measurement was on the last day of the experiment before antecedent sample collection (day 7). (B) The rectal temperatures were measured in the morning (between 07:00 and 07:30). The first measurement was before premedication and LPS or NaCl administration (day 0), and the final measurement was on the last day of the experiment before antecedent sample collection (day 7). (C) The rectal temperatures in the afternoon (between 17:00 and 17:30). The first measurement was day 0 (in the day of LPS or NaCl administration), the final measurement was on day 6 of the experiment. The body weight per day and rectal temperatures in the morning and in the afternoon were presented as the mean from group ± SD. The results of rectal temperature and body weight were compared between the control and the LPS group using Student’s t-test. The result of rectal temperature and body weight was not statistically significant.
