The gastric emptying (GE) rate in the rat. GE rated significantly decreased by atropine and increased by bethanechol. (A) GE rate measured by 3-dimensional micro-CT. (B) GE rate measured by phenol red photospectrometry. Data are expressed as the mean ± range and statistical differences in the data were evaluated using the Kruskal-Wallis test.
