---|---|---|---|---|
TPC (g GAE/100 g extract) | 2.1 ± 0.05 a | 1.9 ± 0.04 b | 1.2 ± 0.08 x | 1.5 ± 0.08 y |
Crude protein (g/100 g) | 45.13 | 43.88 | 9.88 | 13.94 |
Yield (%) | 7.9 ± 0.27 | 8.4 ± 0.12 | 6.5 ± 0.02 | 7.8 ± 0.19 |
Total phenolic content (TPC) values (g GAE/100 g extract) are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation (n = 6). A comparison of TPC was made between the organic Acheta and commercial Acheta, and between organic feed and commercial feed, respectively. Different superscript letters indicate significant differences (p < 0.05) between samples. Protein content values are expressed as g/100 g of sample and were determined by a certified commercial laboratory. No SD values are shown for crude protein as only one analysis was made due to the small quantity of sample.
