A group of researchers have isolated three novel compounds from the venom of a newly discovered species of wasp. Based on their structure and protein chemistry, the researchers believe that all three compounds may have strong anti-inflammatory activity and they have devised an experiment to test whether their compounds can reduce muscle damage after exercise. They plan to induce muscle damage in mice by causing repeated eccentric contractions (by running them downhill on a treadmill), and then examine the amount of inflammation in the muscles of their mice 24hrs later. They will use the following treatment groups:
Sample 1) no treatment (control)
Sample 2) 1mg/kg of Compound ‘A’
Sample 3) 1mg/kg of Compound ‘B’, and;
Sample 4) 1mg/kg of Compound ‘C’.
They perform their experiment and analyse their results using ANOVA followed by a post-hoc test. The results are as follows: (IMAGE ATTACHED)
