Different lowercase letters (a–f) indicate significant differences between treatments (p ≤ 0.05), and different uppercase letters (A–H) indicate significant differences between the times (p ≤ 0.05). A green color indicates the end of the shelf life (day). A red color indicates the measured values of the rejected samples after the end of the shelf life.
