Body composition of mice carcasses.
| Treatment 1 | Weight (g) | Fat (%) | Lean Muscle (%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| LF | 36.60 ± 1.35 b | 18.02 ± 1.00 b | 75.90 ± 0.89 a |
| HF | 46.66 ± 1.06 a | 27.00 ± 1.03 a | 69.89 ± 1.35 c |
| HF-VE | 45.17 ± 2.18 a | 26.09 ± 0.63 a | 70.87 ± 0.62 bc |
| HF-AR | 45.83 ± 3.15 a | 28.10 ± 1.92 a | 67.79 ± 1.89 c |
| HF-TB | 45.06 ± 2.32 a | 24.14 ± 1.35 a | 72.87 ± 1.43 ab |
Body composition data obtained by EchoMRI4in1TM and expressed as % of decapitated mouse carcass body weight. 1 LF: group fed standard low-fat diet; HF: group fed high-fat diet; HF-VE: group fed HF diet with 0.5% VE added; HF-AR: group fed HF diet with 0.5% ARs extract added; HF-TB: group fed HF diet with 10% TB. Data are presented as mean ± SE. Data were statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA and DMRT where statistical differences among groups (p < 0.05) are represented by different letters.
