Values are expressed as means ± SE, n = 10. CN, control group (pigs received a basal diet); FCF, fermented complete feed group (pigs received fermented complete feed); AST, aspartate aminotransferase; ALT, alanine aminotransferase; ALP, alkaline phosphatase; TP, total protein; IgA, immunoglobulin A; IgG, immunoglobulin G; IgM, immunoglobulin M.
