Anticarcinogenic afficacy of phytic acid extracted from rice bran on azoxymethane-induced colon carcinogenesis in rats
This study is carried out to determine the potential of phytic acid extracted from rice bran in the suppression of colon carcinogenesis induced by azoxymethane (AOM) in rats. Seventy-two male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 6 groups with 12 rats in each group. The intended rats for cancer trea...
