Hepatic and small intestinal oxygen consumption in fetal lambs at 130 d of gestation from ewes feed control (CON) or restricted (RES) diets (adapted from Prezotto et al., 2014)

	Treatments†
Item	CON	RES	SEM	P-value
Liver oxygen consumption
µmol/min per mg fresh tissue	60.3	60.5	2.24	0.76
mol/min per liver	5.79	4.67	0.38	0.01
Small intestine oxygen consumption
µmol/min per mg fresh tissue	67.1	53.3	4.2	0.009
µmol/min per mg protein	586	780	57	0.004

^†Treatments were control (CON; fed at requirements for minimal gain and fetal growth) and restricted (RES) diets fed at 60% of CON.
