B_W0 = 100% wheat flour + 0% fenugreek flour; B_WF2% = 98% wheat flour + 2% fenugreek flour; B_WF5% = 95% wheat flour + 5% fenugreek flour; B_WF8% = 92% wheat flour + 8% fenugreek flour. All analyses were made in triplicate, and mean values were recorded (±standard deviations). Identical superscript letters within rows indicate no significant difference ( ). |
