  • To evaluate the efficacy of Maren soft capsules on intestinal motility.
  • To assess the impact of Maren soft capsules on stool properties.

Main Methods:

  • Animal models (mice, guinea pigs, rabbits) were used.
  • Stool amount and weight were measured.
  • Intestinal transit and smooth muscle activity were assessed.

Main Results:

  • Maren soft capsules increased stool amount and weight in mice.

Related Experiment Videos
