Fig. 2From: Adverse effects of hydroxyethyl starch (HES 130/0.4) on intestinal barrier integrity and metabolic function are abrogated by supplementation with AlbuminHistomorphology and release of I-FABP. Quantification of histomorphological damage and representative histological sections of the perfused intestine (a). Relative amounts of I-FABP in luminal effluents were estimated in 15 min intervals by Western blot analyses (b). Bars denote the mean ± SD.
