Relative fold changes in the ileum population of E. coli. T1: Normal diet, T2: Normal diet + E. coil infection, T3: Normal diet + E. coil infection + supplemented with microcapsules (150 mg phenolic compounds (GA eq.) /Kg BW, T4: Normal diet + E. coil infection + supplemented with microcapsules (300 mg phenolic compounds (GA eq.) /Kg BW, T5: Normal diet + E. coil infection + supplemented with oxytetracycline 5 mg /Kg BW. Different letters above charts indicate statistically significant differences among groups (P < 0.05). The analysis was performed in triplicates (n = 3)
