Detection of plasma OVM after OVM gavage. Mice in OVM group were force fed 0.2 mL the FITC-labelled OVM (adjusted to 2.5 mg/ mouse), 2 h later blood was collected from saphenous vein at 8 weeks (a) and 11 weeks (b) (n = 6). FITC-labelled OVM in plasma was precipitated in 50% ammonium sulfate and redissolved in water. Fluorescent intensity of sample was measured using fluorescence microplate reader. Differences between groups were considered significantly different when p < 0.05. *p < 0.05, relative to the LPS group
