Popis:	This study aimed to investigate the effect of grape seed procyanidins (GSPs) on the local inflammation of the colonic epithelium of lambs fed a high-concentrate diet. A total of 48 1/2 Dorper × 1/2 thin-tailed Han ram lambs were randomly assigned to 4 groups and treated with a 70:30 concentrate: forage basal diet (CON), or a basal diet supplemented with 10 (10GSPs), 20 (20GSPs), or 40 (40GSPs) mg/kg BW/d GSPs. The results showed an increasing trend (P = 0.060) in the pH value of the colonic chyme with an increase in the concentration of the GSPs supplements. The concentrations of acetate and propionate in the 20GSPs and 40GSPs groups were lower (P
