SALATRIM 23SO lot A026 belongs to a family of structured triacylglycerols with lower caloric availability than corn oil. Male and female minipigs were divided into five groups of four pigs of each sex and fed diets containing 0%, 3%, 6%, and 10% SALATRIM or 10% corn oil, as a reference for the high fat content of the SALATRIM diets, for 28 days.
