Table 2 Chemopreventive efficacy of selenium on the tumor incidence, tumor multiplicity and tumor size of DMH-induced rat colonic tumors

Groups	Colon tumor incidence (percentage of tumor bearing rats)	Colon tumor multiplicity (mean tumor/animal)	Tumor size (cm)
Normal control	0	0	-
DMH	100%	2.6	0.911 ± 0.196
Selenium	0	0	-
DMH + selenium	60%	1.1	0.609 ± 0.250^b

^bP < 0.001 by one way-ANOVA followed by LSD test when values of IV animals were compared with Group II animals. Values are expressed as mean + SD.
