* Results are in (μg GAE/mg dry extract, mean ± SE). Significant differences (p < 0.05) are shown by a,b,c letters in the same column; () shows statistically significant values for the two extraction methods (p < 0.05). MAE stands for Microwave Assisted Extraction and UAE stands for Ultrasound Assisted Extraction.
