p-values: Diet < 0.0001; Storage period < 0.001; Interaction (diet × storage period) = 0.002.
Standard error of the mean for TBARS = 0.045.
a, b, cMeans in the same row with different letters differ according to Tukey test (p < 0.05) and express the effect of the diet.
A, B, C, D, EMeans in same row with different capital letters differ by Tukey test (p < 0.05) and express the effect of the period of storage.
