Effect of dietary phytate on AOM-induced ACF in rat’s colon (methylene blue) staining. Normal crypts of control group, ACF consisting of multiple crypts in AOM-administered group. Decrease in number of ACF and crypt multiplicity were observed in AOM-administered rats, but fed 1% and 2% phytate. AOM: Azoxymethane, ACF: Aberrant crypt foci
