The concentration of positive control (BHT : butylated hydroxytoluene) solutions were measured at 50 mg%, and all test sample were measured at 500 mg%
Values are means standard deviation of triplicate determinations
Different superscripts within a column (a-c) indicate significant differences (p<0.05).
