Minimum (Min), maximum (Max), Max/Min (Ratio), mean and standard deviation (SD) values are calculated off the outlier removed, normalized line averages. Italics: The line factor was not significant in an ANOVA of a linear model for that element. Elements not measured in a given experiment are noted with an ‘NA’.
