| Group 3 | Number of ACF Producing 4 (number/cm2) | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| SUM 5 | MIX | SIM | |
| C | 0.2 ± 0.4 a | 0.2 ± 0.5 a | 10.5 ± 4.2 a |
| D | 0.1 ± 0.2 a | 0.1 ± 0.2 a | 7.5 ± 3.4 b |
| DLA | 0.4 ± 0.6 a | 0.0 ± 0.0 a | 7.3 ± 2.1 b |

1 All values are mean ± SD (n = 12). 2 Values with the different superscript letters in a column are significantly different from one another as determined by one-way ANOVA followed by Duncan’s multiple range test, p < 0.05. 3 All rats were administered with DMH/DSS. C, AIN-93G diet; D, AIN-93G containing 10% djulis; DLA, AIN-93G containing 10% djulis + 5 × 106 L. acidophilus; DHA, AIN-93G containing 10% djulis + 5 × 107 L. acidophilus. 4 SUM, sulfomucin; MIX, mixed sulfumucin and sialomucin; SIM, sialomucin. 5 Number of rats with SUM-ACF, MIX-ACF, or SIM-ACF.
