A novel phenol-bound pectic polysaccharide from Decalepis hamiltonii with multi-step ulcer preventive activity

Figure 2 Macroscopic observation of Ulcers in ulcer induced/protected stomachs in swim stress/ethanol stress induced ulcer models; Ulcer was induced in animals by either swim stress (SS) or ethanol stress (ES) in group of pretreated/untreated animals at indicated concentrations. In healthy (A), SRPP control (D), Ranitidine control (G)-no ulcer lesions or damage in the stomach tissue were observed. In ethanol stress (B) and swim stress (C) induced animals ulcers score were very high. SRPP (E and F) and ranitidine (H and I) treated animals showed reduced stomach lesions.
