Effect on spontaneous motor activity (A), motor coordination (B) and muscle strength (C) of rats. The decrease in distance traveled, time moving and stereotypic count and increased resting time was observed in cadmium-treated rats while improvement was observed in these rats treated with quercetin simultaneously. Tracking patterns were obtained from automated software ActiMot2 while monitoring the open field activity of rats in different treatment groups. Representative tracking pattern obtained has been shown in each group.Impairment in motor coordination and grip strength was observed in cadmium-exposed rats which also improved on simultaneous treatment with quercetin.Values are mean ± SEM of five rats in each group; Significantly differs (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01); a-compared to control group; b-compared to cadmium exposed group.
