IC50 value is defined as the concentration of 50% effect percentage and expressed as Mean±SD (n=3). Means values with different superscripts in the same row are significantly different (p<0.05), while with same superscripts are not signifiacntly different (p<0.05). BHA , butylated hydroxyanisole. |
