The effect of FDA on uterine contraction. (a) Tracing of isometric uterine contraction following administration of various doses of FDA and (b) mean tension generated from six isolated uterine horns obtained from different oestrogenized rats, which were exposed to various doses of FDA at concentrations ranging between 0.125 to 4 mg/ml. There was a dose-dependent increase in the tension with increasing doses of FDA. The tension recorded following administration of 2 mg/ml FDA was 4.9 times higher than the control. n = 6 (* p < 0.05 as compared to control).
