aby Mann-Whitney- test, mean normalised transmission with standard deviation (SD) is shown, statistically significant results () are displayed in bold, = effect size. bMeasurements 2 and 3 were combined, since these two measurements were closest in time to the measurements of the exposed samples. c for CuSO4 and for hypericum and S8 (unexposed), for CuSO4 and for hypericum and S8 (exposed).
