Each value is mean±SD of ≥3 determinations. Values represent an average of three determinations.
a-cMeans with different superscripts within the same row are significantly different by Duncan’s multiple range test (p<0.05).
*Means within same item are significantly different by student’s t-teat (p<0.05).
