1Visceral fraction included heart, lungs, spleen, pancreas, kidneys, liver (drained gall bladder), and empty bladder and gastrointestinal tract.

2CON, control; G2, Gly supplied at 20% of CON and replaced with Glu; T2 Gly supplied at 20% of CON and replaced with Thr.

3Maximum value of the standard error of the means.

4 P-value for one-way ANOVA.

a-cMeans followed by different superscripts in the same row are different according to a Tukey’s multiple range test (P < 0.05).
