Level of suppression | Length (mm)[25] | Diameter (mm)[25] | ||
| Control | 24-wk omeprazole | ||||
| Duodenum | 27.68 ± 1.36 | 5.02 ± 0.51 | 81.86% | 95-100 | 2.5-3 |
| Jejunum | 31.01 ± 1.19 | 9.12 ± 0.75 | 70.59% | 900-1350 | 4-5 |
| Ileum | 30.77 ± 0.94 | 9.40 ± 0.40 | 69.45% | 25-35 | 3-5 |
| Colon | 19.76 ± 0.98 | 12.01 ± 0.56 | 39.25% | 90-110 | 3-10 |
Level of suppression was a percentage decrement of total Mg2+ absorption in 24-wk omeprazole-treated rats compared with the corresponding control rats.
