Values are mean±S.E.M., n=10. Values shown in parentheses indicate: Brackets – Percent change in BPA treated from vehicle treated control group. Significance at the level of *p<0.05, as compared with vehicle control,No significant difference was noted between untreated and vehicle control groups. Units: ACP – μmoles p-nitrophenol released/mg protein/30 min; ATPase – μmoles inorganic phosphate released/mg protein/30 min; SDH – μg formazon formed/mg protein/15 min
