High feeding intensity increases the severity of fatty liver in the American mink (Neovison vison) with potential ameliorating role for long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids

Values are lsmeans ± SEM. Labeled means with no common letters differ within the response variable (P ≤ 0.05). High-density lipoprotein, HDL; high feeding intensity, HFI; low-density lipoprotein, LDL; low feeding intensity, LFI.
