  1. All values were expressed as the means ± standard error of the mean. Different letters indicate significant differences between SPN treatment for one day at RT compared with a given time and/or storage condition (p < 0.05). *Significantly different compared with the first cycle of freezing (−20°C) and thawing (p < 0.05).
