Means ± standard deviation. Values followed by different superscript within the same row are significantly different (p < 0.05). The statistical differences (p < 0.05) between individual EO concentrations were as follows: 62.5 µL/L vs. 125 µL/L, 250 µL/L and 500 µL/L; 125 µL/L vs. 250 µL/L and 500 µL/L; 250 µL/L vs. 500 µL/L.
