Table 1 shows the effects of garlic concentration and amplitude of sonicator towards the extracted thiols.
Figure 1 shows the effect of garlic concentration on extraction of thiols by using sonicator. The concentrations of extracted thiols were increased as the amount or garlic concentrations increased (4% w/v (0.132 mM) to 10 %w/v (0.170 mM)).
