Data represents the mean ± SD (). Different superscript letters indicate statistical significance of the differences between Seomae mugwort and A. princeps groups, tested by Student’s -test using the SAS. values less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant. (b)Peak numbering was determined by the order of elution. (c)The gas chromatographic retention data and mass spectral data were compared to those of authentic samples and library compounds, respectively.
