Figure 1. The compositional data of the FAs of all phospholipids from investigated liver and lungs (SM = sphingomyelin; PC = phosphatidylcholine; PE = phosphatidylethanolamine; PS = phosphatidylserine; PI= phosphatidylinositol). The FA proportion increases with color intensity, whereas the white color represents FA methyl esters below the detection limit of the GC.

Figure 5. (a) Total lesion scores of liver and lungs recorded in experimental piglets (n = 6 animals/treatment, whereas columns represent means, and bars represent the standard deviation. The letters a, b, c above the bars indicate significant differences). (b) Lung of a healthy pig with mild lymphocytic and histiocytic infiltration in connective tissue (hematoxylin–eosin, 200 ×, scale bar = 20 µm). (c) A healthy piglet liver from control, where the cytoplasm of hepatocytes is finely granulated due to high glycogen content, resulting in an intense stain (hematoxylin–eosin, 200 ×, scale bar = 20 µm), although a PAS stain would be necessary to confirm our observation. (d) The liver of a highly FBs intoxicated piglet (30 mg/kg), where the glycogen content decreased in the hepatocytes’ cytoplasm and a high frequency of necrotic (rounded, faintly stained) hepatocytes (↑) detected (hematoxylin–eosin, 200 ×, scale bar = 20 µm).
