Effects of RLS on serum inflammatory factors in broilers challenged with LPS. (a) Effect of RLS on IL-1β. (b) Effect of RLS on IL-6. (c) Effect of RLS on TNF-α. NS-NCO represents control broilers treated with normal saline; NS-ANT represents broilers treated with the antibiotic; NS-RLS represents broilers treated with rhamnolipids; LPS-NCO represents control broilers challenged with LPS; LPS-ANT represents broilers treated with the antibiotic and challenged with LPS; LPS-RLS represents broilers treated with rhamnolipids and challenged with LPS; * and different superscript letters indicate significant differences (p < 0.05), majuscule present NS-groups and lowercase present LPS-groups, n = 6.
