  1. GGT, gamma-glutamyl transferase; AST, aspartate amino transferase; ALT, alanine amino transferase. Non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis test, with multiple comparisons made by the Dunn’s test for the three-groups comparison (control x 1% x 3%). *A level of p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
