  1. 1) Values are expressed as mean ± standard error (n = 8 for each group). Within the same row, means with different letters (a, b, or c) are significantly different at p < 0.05 by Duncan's multiple range test. NS; not significant by ANOVA at p < 0.05
  2. 2) Relative liver weight is represented per 100 g of body weight (BW)
