§The Effect of Vitamin C on Tooth Growth in Guinea Pigs

§Description:

The response is the length of odontoblasts (cells responsible for tooth growth) in 60 guinea pigs. Each animal received one of three dose levels of vitamin C (0.5, 1, and 2 mg/day) by one of two delivery methods, orange juice or ascorbic acid (a form of vitamin C and coded as ‘VC’).

§Usage:

ToothGrowth

§Format:

A data frame with 60 observations on 3 variables.

  • [,1] lennumeric Tooth length
  • [,2] supp factorSupplement type (VC or OJ).
  • [,3] dose numeric Dose in milligrams/day
