Treatment	Ulcer Index	% Inhibition
Saline 10 mL/kg	0	100
Ethanol 1 mL/100 g	10 ± 0.1 ###	0
MBO (5 mg/kg) + Ethanol 1 mL/100 g	8 ± 0.039 ***	20
MBO (10 mg/kg) + Ethanol 1 mL/100 g	6 ± 0.086 ***	40
MBO (30 mg/kg) + Ethanol 1 mL/100 g	1 ± 0.067 ***	90
Omeprazole (30 mg/kg) + Ethanol 1 mL/100 g	1 ± 0.061 ***	90
