Figure 2

Food intake of WT mice on AIN diet with or without quinine. A. Cumulative food intake of mice on control AIN diet, AIN diet + 0.1% quinine, or AIN diet + 0.01 % quinine, showing no difference between any of the groups. B. Daily real food intake and food waste of wild type mice consuming AIN diet, or AIN diet supplemented with 0.1% or 0.01% quinine. Real food intake was calculated by subtracting waste from measured food intake. There is no significant difference between groups with different diets. There is a trend for increased real food intake by animals fed quinine supplemented diets. C. Diet preference tests, comparing AIN diet and AIN diet supplemented with either 0.01% or 0.1% quinine, showing aversion for the quinine supplemented diets.
