Control	13 ± 3^a	0.013 ± 0.002^a	19172 ± 11969^a	0.017 ± 0.005^b	0.017 ± 0.004^c	0.008 ± 0.001^b	0.347 ± 0.077^a
CMV	16 ± 3^a	0.013 ± 0.006^a	27677 ± 19367^a	0.066 ± 0.039^a	0.458 ± 0.130^a	0.009 ± 0.001^b	0.126 ± 0.008^b
Cd	10 ± 2^b	0.012 ± 0.004^a	15362 ± 9186^a	0.052 ± 0.013^a	0.038 ± 0.006^b	0.023 ± 0.002^a	0.058 ± 0.008^c

Mean values (n = 10) ± SE in the same column followed by different letters are significantly different at p ≤ 0.05, according to one-way ANOVA with Fisher’s LSD test.
