Daily Alcohol Intakes in Grams of Alcohol per Kilogram Body Weight of Mice and Rats Given One to Five Bottles of 10% Alcohol to Drink (Experiments 1 and 2)

Bottles of alcohol vs. bottles of water C57BL/6J mice (n = 16) 129X1/SvJ mice (n = 16) Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 12)
1 vs. 5 8.1 ± 0.7a 1.3 ± 0.2a 0.3 ± 0.2a
2 vs. 4 10.3 ± 0.7a 2.4 ± 0.4ab 0.7 ± 0.3ab
3 vs. 3 13.7 ± 0.9b 3.5 ± 0.4bc 1.7 ± 0.7bc
4 vs. 2 16.5 ± 2.0c 4.4 ± 0.3c 1.5 ± 0.3ab
5 vs. 1 16.0 ± 1.0bc 7.2 ± 1.4d 2.8 ± 0.5c
1 vs. 1 9.6 ± 0.7a 1.8 ± 0.2a 1.6 ± 0.5bc

Means with the same letter superscript do not differ significantly from each other (p < 0.05; least significant difference post hoc tests). Effect of test type for each group: B6, F(5,75) = 13.1, p < 0.00001; 129, F(5,75) = 13.6, p < 0.00001; rats, F(5,55) = 3.8, p < 0.01.
