Organic VS conventional chemical composition of Apricot (Prunus armeniaca)

It is a work that was done in 2020 to differentiate the components of apricot in their conventional state against their organic state.

In 2020 these scientists did a total of 6 experiments with different variables and these are the results they gave

Using this data, in the website Graphpad Students T test online

The Apricot dry matter in organic conditions is 77,69±2.26 g/100g and in conventional conditions is 73,40±6,41 g/100g. The authors said that P < 0.05 and n=6. Using this data, in the website Graphpad Students T test online the result is P < 0.1531 so it's false.

The Apricot Caretoids in organic conditions is 12,98±3,59 g/100g and in conventional conditions is 4,37±1,47 g/100g. The authors said that P < 0.05 and n=6. Using this data, in the website Graphpad Students T test online the result is P < 0.0003 so it's true.

The Apricot Lutein in organic conditions is 0,31±0,06 g/100g and in conventional conditions is 0,21±0,16 g/100g. The authors said that P < 0.05 and n=6. Using this data, in the website Graphpad Students T test online the result is P < 0.1822 so it's false.

The Apricot Zeaxanthin in organic conditions is 0,13±0,02 g/100g and in conventional conditions is 0,16±0,15 g/100g. The authors said that P < 0.05 and n=6. Using this data, in the website Graphpad Students T test online the result is P < 0.6377 so it's false.

The Apricot Kampferol in organic conditions is 2,84±0,28 g/100g and in conventional conditions is 4,11±0,62 g/100g. The authors said that P < 0.05 and n=6. Using this data, in the website Graphpad Students T test online the result is P < 0.0010 so it's true.

The Apricot Quercetin in organic conditions is 25,11±2,09 g/100g and in conventional conditions is 26,97±2,70 g/100g. The authors said that P < 0.05 and n=6. Using this data, in the website Graphpad Students T test online the result is P < 0.2117 so it's false.

The Apricot Myricetin in organic conditions is 1,71±0,22 g/100g and in conventional conditions is 2,25±0,16 g/100g. The authors said that P < 0.05 and n=6. Using this data, in the website Graphpad Students T test online the result is P < 0.0007 so it's true.

The Apricot Flavonoids in organic conditions is 146,76±5,13 g/100g and in conventional conditions is 102,89±10,60 g/100g. The authors said that P < 0.05 and n=6. Using this data, in the website Graphpad Students T test online the result is P < 0.0001 so it's true.

The Apricot Caffeic acid in organic conditions is 24,75±1,87 g/100g and in conventional conditions is 31,92±2,82 g/100g. The authors said that P < 0.05 and n=6. Using this data, in the website Graphpad Students T test online the result is P < 0.0004 so it's true.

The Apricot Chlorogenic acid in organic conditions is 26,03±1,25 g/100g and in conventional conditions is 22,32±1,25 g/100g. The authors said that P < 0.05 and n=6. Using this data, in the website Graphpad Students T test online the result is P < 0.0004 so it's true.
