Final concentration of the concentrated extract and spray dried product evaluated; bpercentage inhibition of CLlum produced by neutrophils stimulated with PMA.
Values are presented as the mean (standard deviation).
: sample concentration that promotes 50% inhibition of chemiluminescence.
: number of independent experiments performed in duplicate.
IC50: (no statistically significant difference was determined by Dunn’s posttest).
