The structure of Ussing chamber system. A, the panorama of the Ussing chamber; B, electronic circuitry (VCC-MC6); C, diffusion chamber (6 channels); D, diffusion pool and receiving room; E, inserts (P2313); F, electrodes.
The LDH activity of isolated small intestine. A, LDH activity of duodenum; B, LDH activity of jejunum; C, LDH activity of ileum. Data are represent as mean ± SD, n=4. a, b and c, means within error bars with different letters differ significantly (P < 0.05).
Effect of epidermal growth factor on transepithelial resistance (TEER) of isolated small intestine. A, duodenum; B, jejunum; C, ileum. Data are represent as mean ± SD, n=4. * means P < 0.05.
Effect of epidermal growth factor on Pi absorption rate of isolated small intestine. A, Pi absorption rate of duodenum; B, Pi absorption rate of jejunum; C, Pi absorption rate of ileum. Data are represent as mean ± SD, n=4. * means P < 0.05.
