Effects of Solvents on Total Phenolic Content and Antioxidant Activity of Ginger Extracts

Table 2

% inhibition of ginger extract.

Solvents	Samples (% inhibition ±SD)
	Ayikel	Mandura
Ethanol	82.108 ± 0.416^a,x	77.975 ± 0.297^d,y
Ethyl acetate	81.398 ± 0.297^b,x	75.967 ± 0.391^e,y
Methanol	84.868 ± 0.293^c,x	82.883 ± 0.216^f,y
Acetone	73.864 ± 0.418^b,x	70.597 ± 0.332^e,y

For each solvent extracts, values in the same column for each sample followed by a different letter (a–f) are significantly different (). For each plant sample, values in same row for each solvent followed by a different letter (x, y) are significantly different () by Tukey’s multiple range tests.
