Note: All the values are mean ± SEM. Mean values with the same superscript letters in the given row are not significantly different whereas those with different superscript letters are significantly (P < 0.05) different as judged by Duncan’s multiple range test. LPe—lyophilized peel; LPu—lyophilized pulp; NS–not significant; SDR—sun-dried rind; and SDS—sun-dried seed.
