Effect of Pre-treatment with Atropine (0.5 mg/kg i.p.) on the Pure Isolates from Spondias mombin Extract on Novelty-Induced Rearing (NIR) Behaviour in Mice. One-way ANOVA revealed that there is significant difference between various treatment groups; F(7, 33) = 17.33, P < 0.001. Each bar is mean ± S.E.M. (n = 6). Atropine (0.5 mg/kg i.p.) did not alter NIR in mice. Coumaroyl had no effect either when given alone or when pre-treated with atropine (0.5 mg/kg i.p.). Quercetin (10 mg/kg i.p.) decreased NIR alone and reversed the effect of atropine. Gallic acid (10 mg/kg i.p.) decreased NIR alone and was further decreased when pre-treated with atropine. * indicates significant difference from control. P < 0.05 (SNK test).
