  1. Different letters designated significant differences among the group (p < 0.05, Dunnett’s post hoc following the two factor ANOVA), P0 = the negative control, P1 = the positive control, P2 = the ethyl acetate extract of the Malaka flesh given a concentration of 100 mg/kg body weight, P3 = the ethyl acetate extract of the Malaka flesh given a concentration of 200 mg/kg body weight
