EE = ethanol extract; HF = hexane fraction; CF = chloroform fraction; EAF = ethyl acetate fraction; BF = n-butanol fraction; TP = total phenolics; GAE = gallic acid equivalent; P = proanthocyanidins; CE = catechin equivalent; F = flavonoids; QE = quercetin equivalent. Results are presented as mean ± standard deviation for the triplicate assays. The analyses with the same letters did not show a significant difference between the averages by 5% Tukey test.
