^{a, b} Means with different superscripts within a row differ significantly (p ≤ 0.05). T0: feedstuff without probiotics or antibiotics; T1: feedstuff with antibiotics; T2: feedstuff with 10⁹ CFU L. plantarum CAM6/mL. n = 12 pigs per treatment for live weight and weight gain; n = 3 pens per treatment to determine the feed intake and feed conversion. SEM: standard error of the mean.
