Figure 3

Results of the MMPB detected in the livers from treated pigs from experiment 2 (high dose). Graph shows the amount of MMPB detected, the conversion to molar equivalents of MC-LR and the final estimated value after converting to wet weight. Inline graphic Concentration of MMPB detected in porcine liver tissue using Lemieux Oxidation. Inline graphic Molar conversion of MMPB to MC-LR and corrected for loses due to incomplete oxidation based on the oxidation conversion efficiency found on the day of extraction and analysis. Inline graphic Conversion of concentration detected to wet weight (ww) from dry weight (dw) using a conversion factor of 0.28 based on porcine liver containing approximately 72% water.
