Table 1

Acceptance of bait containing different concentrations of triptolide fed to male R. rattus in laboratory for 5 days in no-choice feeding test.

Groups ( each)	Concentration in bait (%)	Body weight (g)	Acceptance of treated bait over plain bait (%)	Total ingestion of triptolide (mg/kg bw)	Mean daily ingestion of triptolide (mg/kg bw)
I	0.0		—	—	—
II*	0.1
III	0.2
IV	0.3

Values are mean ± SD, = number of rats, and = number of days. *One rat died at the end of treatment. Values with different superscripts a–b in a column differ significantly at .
