Table 6

The t-test of significance between MDD and degree of dispersion of basil oil and light liquid paraffin emulsions.

Test parameters	Basil oil emulsions		Light liquid paraffin emulsions
	Calculated 𝑡-value^a	𝑃 value	Calculated 𝑡-value^a	𝑃 value
MDD (uncentrifuged versus centrifuged)	9.795	𝑃≤0.001	17.97	𝑃≤0.001
MDD (centrifuged versus MDD-60th day)	2.520	𝑃≤0.01	4.662	𝑃≤0.001
Degree of dispersion (uncentrifuged versus centrifuged)	4.228	𝑃≤0.001	6.080	𝑃≤0.001

^a𝑛=16; MDD: mean droplet diameter.
Critical 𝑡-value = 2.14 at 𝑃=0.05.
