Groups | Body weight (g) | Body temperature (F) | Daily food intake (%) |
---|---|---|---|
Disease control | 152.50 ± 0.81 | 101.00 ± 0.35 | 72.50 ± 1.07 |
Standard control | 155.33 ± 1.01 | 100.83 ± 0.29 | 78.33 ± 2.01 |
AERE (5%) | 163.17 ± 1.92** | 96.67 ± 0.40**# | 92.50 ± 1.07**# |
AERE (10%) | 165.67 ± 2.24** | 97.50 ± 0.21** | 87.50 ± 2.69** |
All values are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 6). Mean difference is significant at the **p < 0.01 level compared to disease control group and #p < 0.05 compared to standard control. Statistical analysis was done by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Dunnett’s test
