Table 3.

Hardness value comparison between FS and FSC.

Hardness	N	Mean	Std. Deviation	Std. Error	95% Confidence Interval for Mean		p-Value	Bonferroni Test
Hardness	N	Mean	Std. Deviation	Std. Error	Lower Bound	Upper Bound	p-Value	Bonferroni Test
Neat	3	3.2700	0.40596	0.23438	2.2616	4.2784	<0.001	0.003 ^a,b
FS	6	2.3300	0.15505	0.06330	2.1673	2.4927		<0.001 ^b,c
FSC	9	4.2511	0.38166	0.12722	3.9577	4.5445		0.001 ^a,c

FS = Fish scales; FSC = Fish scales derived collagen. a = Neat, b = FSC, c = FSC.
