Values presented are the average of three . 1, 2, 3, 4Expressed in terms of GAE, RuE, CE, and TAE (milligram of gallic acid, rutin, catechin, and tannic acid equivalents per gram of dry extract, respectively). In each row, values bearing different letters (a, b, and c) are considered highly statistically significant at (two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test).
