Analysis of locomotion and anxiety-like behaviour after UFPC exposure. Scatter dot plots showing the performance of offspring in the open field test across the different conditions (circles = sham group, squares = prenatal group, triangles = postnatal group, inverted triangles = pre & postnatal group) at PND 21. A – Total distance moved in centimetres during the 15 min test. B – Mean velocity of ambulation in centimetres per second. C – Time in seconds spent in the different observed zones of the arena including the centre and border. Bars indicate the mean ± SD. Ordinary one-way ANOVA was employed for all data followed by Dunnett’s multiple comparison test, except for B where a Brown-Forsythe ANOVA was performed. α = 0.05, *p < 0.05. Transparent red symbols represent female individuals and transparent blue symbols represent male individuals (n = 10 per condition)
