Daily calcium intake, fecal calcium excretion and apparent calcium absorption

graphic file with name nrp-2-3-i005.jpg

1)Mean ± SE of 9rats per group

2)Apparent absorption (mg) = Ca intake (mg) - fecal Ca excretion (mg)

3)Apparent absorption rate (%) = [Apparent absorption (mg)/Intake (mg)]×100

4)*p<0.05, **p<0.01

5)Values with different superscripts in columns are significantly different at p<0.05.

6)NS is not significant.
