The values are shown as the mean ± standard deviation (n = 3).

Significant differences among treatments are indicated by different lowercase characters in the same column and parameter (CON-B, PAS-B, and TS-B) according to one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's HSD test (p < 0.05).

Different uppercase letters within the same row and treatment indicate significant differences among digestion phases (Undigested, Oral, Gastric, and Intestinal) according to one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's HSD test (p < 0.05). Uppercase letters are not shown for recovery (%).

TPC, total phenolic content; FRAP, ferric reducing antioxidant power; AA, ascorbic acid. CON-B, untreated control; PAS-B, pasteurized; TS-B, thermosonicated.
