Fig. 1. Dual-Emission X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) of female rats treated with TBT (n=5, and MOCK Treated-controls-rats, treated with only the vehicle of TBT, n=4). A) Data from Bone Mineral Density (BMD) from animal´s whole skeletons expressed in average ± standard error. Graphic shows that TBT-treated animals have an increased in BMD (0. 147 ± 0.010 g/cm²) when compared to MOCK Treated rats (0. 178 ± 0.011 g/cm², n = 4, p< 0.05). B and C) Representative images of X-Rays from both MOCK Treated rats (B) and TBT-treated animals (C) exhibiting the increased in BMD observed in the former experimental group. Data was analyzed by Student´s T test Bonferroni´s post hoc correction, considered statistically significant when p<0.05.
