 Average absolute weights of organs and parts in the control group I. Percentage changes 

 in weight for corresponding parts in the various test groups. Changes actually observed 

 for body weight; estimated for the various parts by comparing the observed final weight 

 at autopsy with the weight of the corresponding part in the control group I, which is assumed 



to be the initial weight (Ott '24)
