Dietary zinc and metallothionein on small intestinal disaccharidases activity in mice

Figure 3 Comparison of maltase activity in the duodenum (A) and jejunum (B) of MT+/+ and MT-/- mice fed the 2, 15 and 50 mg/kg Zn diet for 5 wk (n = 8/group/genotype). ^aP < 0.05 vs MT-/- mice fed the 2, 15 or 50 mg/kg Zn diet, respectively; ^cP < 0.05 vs MT+/+ mice fed the 50 mg/kg Zn diet. MT: Metallothionein.
