Content of flavan-3-ol
monomers (A) and dimers (B) (mg/mL) obtained
by HPLC-DAD-MS quantification after the interaction assays, evaluating
the effect of the mannoproteins F and L on the different systems:
control condition without cells, oral cells with flavan-3-ols (GSE),
salivary proteins with flavan-3-ols (S+GSE), oral cells with flavan-3-ols
(C+GSE), and oral cells with salivary proteins and flavan-3-ols (C+S+GSE).
Different Roman letters indicate statistical differences (p < 0.05) among samples in the four systems (GSE, S+GSE,
C+GSE, and C+S+GSE) while different Greek letters indicate statistical
differences (p < 0.05) among samples in the different
treatments (PBS, MPF, and MPL).
