The level of dietary fat was ∼7% of dry weight in the CD or 20% in the WD. Gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry revealed high levels of saturated fatty acids (11-fold difference) and monosaturated fatty acids (4-fold difference) in the WD when compared with the CD. The CD contained higher levels of omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids. ND, Not determined.
