	(Mean ± SD)	(Mean ± SD)
I-sil	155.89 ± 45.27^BC	1367.25 ± 188.77^AB
P-sil	127.80 ± 27.57^C	867.61 ± 102.76^D
I-sil/heat	130.20 ± 22.11^C	1162.98 ± 222.07^C
P-sil/heat	169.86 ± 50.29^AB	1499.35 ± 339.06^A
I	131.87 ± 15.86^C	1245.78 ± 211.16^BC

∗Different letters mean statistically significant difference for each test, with 𝑃<0.05.
**SD: standard deviation.
