Table 8 Effect of the herring oil, soya oil, and canola oil experimental diets, LFI and HFI, and fasting on mink plasma levels of FFA and TAG

From: 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
