Figure 2. (A) Absolute free DHA in plasma concentrations in adults during 6 hours after taking DHA Gel Tablet and DHA algal oil. Plotted values were expressed as mean ± SD (μg/ml) (n = 19) (B) The incremental area under the curve from 0 to 6 hours (AUC0–6), Cmax, and Tmax after DHA Gel Tablet and DHA algal oil administration. T statistical test for unpaired samples was performed. Plotted values were expressed as mean ± SD. The asterisks (*) in the graphs indicate significant differences (p < 0.05) between the DHA Gel Tablet group and the DHA algal oil supplementation groups. One of the subjects’ AUC0-6 from the DHA algal oil group exceeded the mean by more than two standard deviations. This result was therefore treated as an outlier, and data for this subject were excluded from subsequent analysis to ensure the integrity and accuracy of the statistical results. DHA, docosahexaenoic acid; AUC, area under the curve; Cmax, the maximum concentration of free DHA in plasma; Tmax, time taken to reach maximum concentration
