CONT stands for mayonnaise prepared egg yolk.
RGE25, RGE50, RGE75, and RGE100 stand for mayonnaise added with 25%, 50%, 70%, and 100% of RGE for egg yolk weight basis of CONT.
All values are mean±SD (n=20).
Different superscript letters indicate significant differences (p<0.05) between values in the same column.
