Values represented as mean±SD of six replicates per treatment.
Control, nuggets with 0% RSS (w/w); SN5, nuggets with 5% RSS (w/w); SN10, nuggets with 10% RSS (w/w).
Values in the same column with different superscripts differ significantly (p<0.05).
Values in the same row with different superscripts differ significantly (p<0.05).
RSS, roasted sesame seeds.
