Figure 2

Gross and histologic images of intestine from Experiment 1. Shown are gross images of small bowel and colon from piglets in the (a) Colostrum, (b) NEC + Saline, and (c) NEC + Lr-DM-maltose groups. In panel (b), the black inset highlights pneumatosis in the small bowel wall and the red inset demonstrates colonic perforation. Also shown are histologic images of small bowel stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) at 10× magnification from piglets in the (d) Colostrum, (e) NEC + Saline, and (f) NEC + Lr-DM-maltose groups.
