Fig. 6 — a Percentage of protease inhibition and b average of protease inhibition of Blastocystis sp. isolated from schizophrenic individuals. The concentration of solubilised antigens was standardized to 0.1 mg/ml whereas trypsin (0.1 mg/ml) was used as positive control. Values were obtained from an average of three independent experiments with triplicates in each sample. PMSF Phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, EDTA ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, SZ schizophrenic individuals; NS non-schizophrenic individuals. Horizontal black lines: *P < 0.05, ^#P > 0.05 in ANOVA analysis for mean comparison of percentage of protease activity inhibition within a cohort group. Horizontal blue lines: **P < 0.05 in independent t-test for comparison for means of percentage of protease inhibition between SZ and NS
