Butyric acid (μg/g)	22.81 ± 8.63^a	40.49 ± 9.08^a	38.70 ± 5.28^a	41.37 ± 5.11^a
Isobutyric acid (μg/g)	56.33 ± 23.99^a	15.12 ± 7.61^b	6.06 ± 1.20^b	6.40 ± 0.91^b
Total SCFAs (μg/g)	260.41 ± 56.49^a	255.05 ± 52.26^a	200.84 ± 25.71^a	232.36 ± 39.91^a

Con group, administration of saline solution; Fru-L group, administration of a low dosage of fructose (2.6 g/kg/day); Fru-M group, administration of a moderate dosage of fructose (5.3 g/kg/day); Fru-H group, administration of a high dosage of fructose (10.5 g/kg/day). Data are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation (n = 10). Values in the same row that do not share the same lowercase letter are significantly different (P < 0.05).
