2.4. Statistical analysis
Analysis of variance was performed using SPSS for Microsoft
version 18.0 software package (SPSS Chicago, IL) and least significant differences (LSD) at P ¼ 0.05 for means were calculated to
determine significant differences between treatments. All studies
were replicated by conducting experiments on at least two
different occasions and for each batch of fruit there were three units
of eight fruit slices for each treatment.
