Data represented as mean ± SEM (EGCG n = 3; ethanol bark and DCM : M bark n = 6 each). IC50 values in a column superscripted by different letters are significantly different at p < 0.05. EGCG, ethanol bark, and DCM : M bark are r2 = 1.00, 0.99, and 0.90, respectively. DCM : M: dichloromethane : methanol; EGCG: epigallocatechin gallate.
