¶ Values are shown as the mean ± standard deviation (n = 8). Data were analyzed by bivariate ANOVA analysis. When one of the factors was significant (p<0.05) univariate analysis with Tukey post test was performed to determine specific differences between means. Statistical differences are shown by different superscript letters.
