Table 2. Daily food intake and body weight gain.

Diet Treatment Food intake, g/day Body weight gain, g
ND Acetone 4.30 ± 0.32a 4.60 ± 0.25NS
TPA 3.99 ± 0.38ab 5.55 ± 1.80
Acetone + DSS 3.30 ± 0.30ab 4.93 ± 1.66
TPA + DSS 4.03 ± 0.57ab 3.60 ± 0.40
HPD Acetone 2.97 ± 0.11b 2.90 ± 0.10

Food intake was recorded daily throughout the experiment and body weight was measure once a week. Body weight gain was calculated by final body weight-initial body weight of each mouse. Values are presented as the mean ± standard error.

NS, not significant; ND, normal diet; HPD, high protein diet; TPA, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate; DSS, dextran sodium sulfate.

a,bMeans with different letters within a column are significantly different from each other at p < 0.05 as determined by Duncan's multiple range test. The alphabet a in the table was given to the largest number.
