Effects of essential oil supplementation on antioxidant relative mRNA expression of jejunum (A) and ileum mucosa (B) and liver (C) in weaned pigs. Control = basal diets without antibiotics; Antibiotics = basal diets supplemented with 20 mg/kg colistin sulfate and 40 mg/kg zinc bacitracin; EO = basal diets supplemented with 100 mg/kg essential oil blend. The different superscripts within a gene indicate a significant difference (p ≤ 0.05). All results are presented as mean ± SEM (n = 6).
