Figure 3
HLJDT enhances bacterial clearance in septic rats. Rats were orally administrated with 270 mg/kg of HLJDT or vehicle at 2 h prior to CLP or sham surgery. Peritoneal lavage fluid, liver, and lung samples were harvested 24 h after CLP, and the bacterial loads were determined. rats/group, * versus CLP control, # versus sham control.
