  1. The null hypothesis: \({\varvec{H}}_{{\varvec{i}}} = {\varvec{H}}_{{\varvec{j}}}\) and alternative hypothesis: \({\varvec{H}}_{{\varvec{i}}} \ne {\varvec{H}}_{{\varvec{j}}}\). α is set as 0.05/n. where n is the number of the tested groups. The P-values that are too small to present are denoted as “0” in the table
  2. (a)The bootstrap distributions for ortho protons (H2 and H6) of Py exhibit the negative percentile range, − 0.058 and − 0.017 \({\text{M}}^{ - 1}\) for \(K\) and the range, − 2.83 and − 0.81 ppm for \({\Delta }_{C}\)
