Moreover, similar to the living tardigrade groups observed in the above section, we detected a highly significant difference in the carbonyl content between the control group and the 120 kJ.m -2 or 180 kJ.m -2 UVC irradiated groups (Kruskall-Wallis test, p <0.05), which showed a 2- and 2.5-fold increase in carbonyl content, respectively.
