Table 5. Color value of leached tea, liquid tea and solid tea processed from Tenebrio molitor larvae

	L^*	a^*	b^*
Leached tea¹⁾	50.92±0.34⁴⁾^a⁵⁾	-0.42±0.03^c	5.53±0.18^b
Liquid tea²⁾	41.55±0.34^b	-0.18±0.07^b	4.15±0.11^c
Solid tea³⁾	40.15±0.49^c	0.64±0.05^a	6.47±0.21^a

¹⁾Leached tea is produced by leaching microwave treated Tenebrio molitor L.
²⁾Liquid tea is prepared by diluting the extract of microwave treated Tenebrio molitor L.
³⁾Solid tea is prepared by dissolving the spray dried powder of extract.
⁴⁾Values represent mean±SD (n=3).
⁵⁾^a^-^bValues with different superscript within the column are significantly different by Duncan’s multiple range test (p<0.05).
