Gastro protective effects of δ-tocotrienol on stress induced gastric mucosal injury / Mohd Nor Syidiq Rodzian
This study aims to investigate the gastric protective effects of δ-tocotrienol (T3) concentrate (90% δ-tocotrienol, and 10% ɣ-tocotrienol) supplementations on gastric injury of rats induced by water-immersion restraint stress. Fourteen male Sprague-Dawley rats (200-250 g) were divided into two equal...
