Fig. 2. Effect of ilaprazole on GIT in small intestine of each group.
The MGC value was measured from the rat stomach and the absorbance at 590 nm was measured (n = 4–6). Control: not open the abdomen treated with 4 ml/kg 0.5 % CMC-Na; vehicle: POI rats treated with 4 ml/kg 0.5 % CMC-Na; ilaprazole 1 mg/kg: POI rats treated with ilaprazole 1 mg/kg; ilaprazole 3 mg/kg: POI rats treated with ilaprazole 3 mg/kg; ilaprazole 10 mg/kg: POI rats treated with ilaprazole 10 mg/kg; The data were expressed as means ± SEM. Dunnett’s test was performed post-hoc for the ANOVA. GIT, gastrointestinal transit; MGC, mean geometric center; POI, postoperative ileus. **p < 0.01 vs. control group, #p < 0.05 vs. vehicle group.
