S.E., standard error of mean; CEE, crude ethanolic extract; DMSO, dimethyl sufoxide indicates negative controls; AZL, albendazole
*Indicates that worms were exposed to PBS for 30 min after exposure to different treatments to confirm their mortality
Different capital letters indicate significance between hours for each dose in CEEs (column). Different small letters indicate significance between doses for each hour in CEEs (row)
