Ex vivo effect of haem-enriched diet. Effect of faecal water from rats fed with control (CON) and haem-enriched (HEM) diets, before or after treatment with a polymer resin carrying hydrazine functional groups, which trap aldehydes, on (a) cellular trans-epithelial resistance, (b) DNA damage, and (c) reactive oxygen species formation on murine colonic epithelial cells. CON, control diet; HEM, haem-enriched diet; -ald, after aldehyde trapping. Values are presented as means ± SEM; n = 3 to 4. P < 0.05 using one-way ANOVA. Holm-Sidak’s multiple comparison test: *versus CON, #versus HEM
