1Only parameters that were significantly affected by the experimental factors are presented.
2Crude protein.
3Tannic acid.
4Alkaline phosphatase.
5γ-glutamyltransferase.
6Creatine kinase.
7Cholinesterase.
*Overall mean for rats fed diets with 10% of CP (n = 36) differs significantly from that of rats fed diets with 18% of CP (n = 36).
a,bLowercase letters refer to the overall means calculated for each level of TA (n = 12), regardless of CP level. Overall means with different letters differ significantly.
A,BCholinesterase activity was affected only by the interaction; therefore, superscripts refer to the group average (n = 6) and means within column with different letters differ significantly.
