Tested sample concentration was 100 mg/mL.
¹⁾All values are mean±SD (n=3).
²⁾^a^-^dMeans with different superscripts within the same aging temperature are significantly different by Duncan's multiple range test (p<0.05).
³⁾^*Means with superscripts between the same aging time are significantly different by Student's t-test (p<0.05).
