Significance p<0.001 p<0.001 p<0.001 NS
1)

Values with different superscripts in the same column are significantly different. NS means not significant.

2)

The method for MDA determination employed the incubation step of reaction mixtures (sample + chemicals) for 2 hr in a 95°C water bath, thus MDA could be artificially formed from its precursor fatty acids during the analysis.

3)

The value reflects the amount of non-volatile aldehydes, principally 2-alkenals.
