p-value for the ANOVA testing whether significant differences existed between any two sets of experimental conditions.

**

Denotes collection efficiency significantly different (per Tukey’s test) than other collection efficiencies in same size bin.

***

Denotes collection efficiencies significantly different (per Tukey’s test) from each other.
