Notes: All values are expressed as the mean ± standard error of the mean (SEM) (n = 6). Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc test; a, compared to DW10; b, compared to MEOR100; c, compared to MEOR200; d, compared to MEOR400; *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001.
Abbreviations: DW10, distilled water 10 mg/kg; Lop3, loperamide 3 mg/kg; MEOR, methanol extract of O. rochetiana; MVICC, mean volume of intestinal contents; MWICC, mean weight of small intestinal content.
