Figures & data
Figure 1. Mean (values shown with in the histogram bars) cortical cell size in Control and DZ treated groups.
Note:+bars = SEM; uppercase letter (A, AB and B) above the + bars indicate the statistical comparison of the means among the experimental groups [any two groups not sharing a common uppercase letter show significant difference with each other (comparison of the means based upon Duncan's Multiple Range Test: P <0.05)]. Title bar shows the F, F critical and P values of ANOVA. 9S: 9 mg/kg Single DZ exposure; 9M: 9 mg/kg Multiple DZ exposure; 18S: 18 mg/kg Single DZ exposure; and 18M: 18 mg/kg Multiple DZ exposure groups.
