2.7. Statistical analysis
Statistical analysis of results was conducted using JMP® software (version 15, SAS Institute, Inc., Cary, NC, USA). Results were expressed as mean values ± standard deviation (SD) of triplicate experiments. Tukey’s honest significant difference (Tukey’s HSD) test was used to determine differences between all experimental results for different sample types through all tests and the level of significance (p ˂ 0.05) among them.
