NB: S. I. units for phenolic and flavonoid contents were determined in mg Eq of gallic acid and rutin per gramme of dried sample. Results were expressed as mean ± SEM of triplicate determinations. TPC of various fractions marked with different asterisks differ significantly (p < 0.05) and TFC of various fractions marked with the same asterisks showed no significant difference (p > 0.05)
