Fat model equations for total fecal bile acids excretion.
| Species | Soluble fibera | Outcomeb | Equation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dog | No | Fecal excretion of BA (lognormal distribution) | = -0.897 (±0.2692) – 0.631 (±0.3148) + 0.013 (±0.0162) × Dietary fat (%) |
| Yes | = -0.897 (±0.2692) – 0.631 (±0.3148) + 0.026 (±0.0162) × Dietary fat (%) | ||
| Guinea Pig | No | = -0.897 (±0.2692) – 0.786 (±0.3043) + 0.013 (±0.0162) × Dietary fat (%) | |
| Yes | = -0.897 (±0.2692) – 0.786 (±0.3043) + 0.026 (±0.0162) × Dietary fat (%) | ||
| Hamster | No | = -0.897 (±0.2692) – 0.955 (±0.1964) + 0.013 (±0.0162) × Dietary fat (%) | |
| Yes | = -0.897 (±0.2692) – 0.955 (±0.1964) + 0.026 (±0.0162) × Dietary fat (%) | ||
| Rat | No | = -0.897 (±0.2692) + 0.013 (±0.0162) × Dietary fat (%) | |
| Yes | = -0.897 (±0.2692) + 0.026 (±0.0162) × Dietary fat (%) |
a
Addition of an ingredient in the diet that is a major source of soluble fiber.
b
Fecal excretion of BA must be backtransformed from a lognormal distribution to obtain results in μmol/g food intake.
