  1. Data are means of triplicates (Mean ± SEM, n = 3). Different letters indicate the significant difference between samples (P < 0.05)
  2. 1a, b, c, are different, indicating significant differences between each group. ab and a are compared or ab and b are compared, because both have duplicate letters, indicating no significant difference between each group.
