Table 2.

Biochemical parameters in Wistar rats subjected to the standard diet AIN-93G (S, n = 6), standard diet AIN-93G+1 mL of water (SW, n = 6), protein-free diet (PF, n = 6) and AIN-93G+25 mg/kg tamarind trypsin inhibitor in 1 mL water (25 mg/kg TTI, n = 6) for 11 days. The results are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation of each group. Different letters indicate p<0.05 between groups; one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's post-hoc test was used.
