Values are expressed as means ± SD, n = 10. Differences between groups were considered as significant at p < 0.05 and were analyzed with one-way ANOVA. a different compared to Con; b different compared to 13% F; c different compared to BPA (p < 0.05). Con, control group; F, fructose group; BPA, 1 µg/mL BPA group.
