All values are reported on dry basis. The amounts are provided in the mean ± standard deviation (s.d.) form, after performing at least triplicate experiments. Total value calculated using “∑mean ± sqrt∑(s.d.2)”. The superscript letters a, b, c, d and e shown in the table represent the significant differences (p < 0.05) for the same parameters of the different samples.
