  1. Selected haemato-biochemical parameters of groups C, I and H. Data are given as Mean ± Standard Deviation
  2. Alb albumin, ALT alanine-amino transferase, BUN blood urea nitrogen, Crea creatinine, Hct haematocrit, RBC red blood cells, TT4 serum total tetraiodothyroxine, WBC white blood cells
  3. Data were compared by ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons post-test. Different symbols (α, β, γ) indicate differences between groups (p < 0.05)
