Table 2

The ulcer protective effect of the A. perryi flower extract (APFE) on the pylorus ligation-induced ulcer model.

Treatment	Dose	Parameters
		Gastric volume (ml)	pH	Total acidity (mEq/l)	Free acidity (mEq/l)	Ulcer index
Control	1 ml/kg
APFE	250 mg/kg	^
	500 mg/kg
Ranitidine	50 mg/kg

Control: rats received only distilled water; APFE: rats received the Aloe perryi flower extract in a dose level (250 and 500 mg/kg) (p.o.); ranitidine: rats received ranitidine which is dissolved in distilled water and given in a dose level (50 mg/kg) (p.o.) and served as a standard drug. /group. Values are expressed as (). value is <0.001 and ^ value is <0.05 versus control.
