Effect of Maternal Dietary Condensed Tannins from Sainfoin (<em>Onobrychis viciifolia</em>) on Gut Health and Antioxidant-Immune Crosstalk in Suckling Lambs

Effect of Maternal Dietary Condensed Tannins from Sainfoin (<em>Onobrychis viciifolia</em>) on Gut Health and Antioxidant-Immune Crosstalk in Suckling Lambs

Ewes fed sainfoin (a source of condensed tannins “CT”) may influence the homeostasis of the gastrointestinal tract of suckling lambs.
