- 1Data expressed as means ± SD, n = 3, 3, and 4 respectively, per treatment.
- 2Total tocopherols = Mixture of α-tocopherol + β-tocopherol + γ-tocopherol + δ-tocopherol.
- 3Total tocotrienols = Mixture of α-tocotrienol + β-tocotrienol + γ-tocotrienol + δ-tocotrienol
- 4TRF = Tocotrienol Rich Fraction (Mixture of 15% α-tocotrienol + 60% γ-tocotrienol + 25% δ-tocotrienol)
- from palm oil (Purified at AMR, Madison, WI).
- 5Tocols = Mixture of α-, β-, γ-, and δ-tocopherols (T) + α-, β-, γ-, and δ-tocotrienols (T3).
- 6Percentages of control values are in parentheses.
- a-bValues in columns with a different superscript letter are significantly different at P < 0.05.
