Control : 0.337, 0.302, 0.405, 0.400, 0.381, 0.398, 0.377, 0.392, 0.345, 0.409 mmol.l-1
Test : 0.341, 0.302, 0.504, 0.452, 0.309, 0.375, 0.479, 0.423, 0.311, 0.333 mmol.l-1
1) Calculation of mean values:
Results: Control: 0.375 mmol.l-1
Test: 0.3mmol.l-1
2) Calculation of standard deviations (SD):
Results: Control: 0.0353 mmol.l-1
Test: 0.0758 mmol.l-1
3) Calculation of F-test:
DF: n1-1=9, n2-1=9
As calculated F > Fcrit = 4.030 (DF 9,9, α=0.05) difference between variances is statistically significant.
As calculated t < tcrit= 2.262 (DF=9, α=0.05) difference between means is statistically insignificant.
Conclusion: As the difference between means of control and test group is statistically insignificant (p>0.05), preparation doesnīt influence AST level in blood serum of dairycows.
