SCFAs in colon content and blood samples.

Proportions (%) of acetic-, propionic- and butyric acids in the hindgut and blood of rats given diets supplemented with different amounts of blueberry husks (2B = 122 g blueberry/kg dwb and B = 61 g blueberry/kg dwb) and/or probiotics (P; 6⋅109 CFU per day).Probiotics: Bifidobacterium infantis (CURE21), Lactobacillus gasseri VPG44, and Lactobacillus plantarum (HEAL19).Mean values for eight rats per group, B group (n = 6).Mean values of C, 2B and B only, i.e. those without any added probiotics, with unlike superscript letters were significantly different (PMean values were significantly different from those rats fed diets without bacteria: *P12B (n = 7), B and BP (n = 6).
