  1. All data are presented as mean ± SD. Values in the same column with the different superscripts are significant at P < 0.05. *Results are expressed as inhibitory activity in mmol Trolox equivalent/mL (mM TE/mL) of extract. **Results are expressed as inhibitory activity in mg ascorbic acid equivalent per mL (mg AAE/mL) of extract.
