Abstract
Male rats (about 70 g) were fed on a laboratory chow (Oriental Yeast Company Ltd., Tokyo, Japan), and adapted to xylitol in the following two ways. In group A, xylitol was provided in successive increases of 5 per cent per week, and a final 20 per cent xylitol diet was provided for 8 or 10 weeks. In group B, xylitol was provided in successive increases of 2.5 per cent per 3.5 days to obtain a 20 per cent xylitol diet (Fig. 1).
