Data (> 100): not significant activity found at 100 μg/mL concentration; (−): not determined; SFE Supercritical Fluid Extraction, UAE Ultrasound Assisted Extraction, RVM Residual Vegetable Matrix, OVM Original Vegetable Matrix. aData acquired from a previous work [4]

Data are presented as IC50 (μg/mL) (concentration needed to induce 50% cell viability inhibition [4, 5] <sup> 5</sup>, GI50 (μg/mL) (concentration needed for 50% growth inhibition), TGI (μg/mL) (concentration needed for total growth inhibition) and LC50 (μg/mL) (concentration needed for 50% cell death) after 48 h treatment as mean ± SEM of at least three independent experiments each performed in quadruplicate
