Effect of Fa.EtAc fraction of Ferula ammoniacum (D. Don) on mice in the behavioural Y-maze test. (A) Number of arm entries (B) Same arm returns (C) alternate arm returns (D) % Spontaneous alternation performance. The data are expressed as Mean ± SEM; each value corresponds to a mean of eight animals. One-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s post hoc multiple comparison test to determine the values of p. ** p < 0.01; comparison of DW + Sal^a (Normal control) vs. DW + Scop^b (Scopolamine treated), ^# p < 0.05 and ^## p < 0.01; comparison of (DW + Scop)^b vs. DZP + Scop^c (Donepezil treated)- and Fa.EtAc^c (50, 100 and 200 mg/kg)-treated groups), ns: values not significantly different in comparison to (DW + Scop)^b-treated group using one-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s post hoc multiple comparison test.
