ALT (U/l)	25.59 ± 0.10^c	25.09 ± 0.11^c	50.18 ± 1.05^a	35.68 ± 1.07^b
ALP (U/l)	66.93 ± 0.35^c	66.20 ± 0.49^c	93.19 ± 0.89^a	74.51 ± 1.62^b

TP (g/dl)	6.10 ± 0.02^a	6.14 ± 0.01^a	4.94 ± 0.04^c	5.54 ± 0.03^b

Values are expressed as means ± SE () in every group. BPA: bisphenol A; lycopene (LYC); ALT: alanine aminotransferase; ALP: alkaline phosphatase; GGT: gamma glutamyl transferase; TP: total protein; Alb: albumin. Within the same row, means with different superscript letters differ significantly at .
