  1. 1Values are means ± SE, n = 3/4 per treatment group. RNA was isolated from ileal sample of GF versus CONV piglets using Trizol reagent. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis of gene expression was determined by QuantiTect SYBR Green RT-PCR Master Mix in a 384-well plate using an ABI Prism 7900 HT SS instrument.
