FGHAD, fresh ginger hot-air dried (50°C, 8 h); FGFRD, fresh ginger freeze-dried; GPHAD, ginger pomace hot-air dried; GPFRD, ginger pomace freeze-dried.
All values are mean±SD (n=3).
Means with different superscript letters (a-d) in the same column are significantly different at p<0.05 by Duncan’s multiple range test.
