For phytochemical screening: (+) presence of phytoconstituents and (−) absence of phytoconstituents; values of standardization of the content of the phytochemicals represent mean SD (). Expressed as mg of gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/g of the dry extract. Expressed as mg of quercetin equivalents (QE)/g of the dry extract.
