Table 2.

The relative weight of the left testis (g) in the control and the PNP-treated groups

Time (after PNP administration) PNP (mg/kg b.w.)
Control (PBS) 0.01 (low dose) 0.1 (mid dose) 1.0 (high dose)
0.5 month 0.38 ± 0.15 0.26 ± 0.07 0.56 ± 0.16 0.63 ± 0.20
1 month 1.31 ± 0.15 1.47 ± 0.13 1.51 ± 0.09 1.32 ± 0.19
1.5 months 1.52 ± 0.20 1.47 ± 0.06 1.51 ± 0.19 1.60 ± 0.08
2 months 1.87 ± 0.17 1.79 ± 0.13 1.27 ± 0.18* 1.22 ± 0.10*
2.5 months 1.72 ± 0.13 1.83 ± 0.12 1.36 ± 0.09 1.59 ± 0.11

Each value represents the mean ± SEM of (n = 5) quails per group

*P < 0.05, significant difference (the PNP-treated groups vs. the control group)
