Effect of AYB seed and tuber meal on Plasma AST and ALT levels in Wistar rats.

Treatments	AST concentration	ALT concentration
100% seed flour	5.04 ± 1.62^a	8.46 ± 2.43^a
50% seed flour	3.42 ± 0.63^b	4.43 ± 0.10^b
100% tuber flour	0.41 ± 0.36^c	2.96 ± 0.7^9bc
50% tuber flour	0.72 ± 0.28^c	2.20 ± 0.45^c
Rat chow	1.18 ± 0.68^c	2.54 ± 0.62^c

Means followed by the same letters are not significantly different () using Least Significant Difference. AST (U L^−I) and ALT (U L^−I) values are presented as means ± SD.
