Salim Gasmi

Mean ± SEM

Shibabrata Pattanayak

SD/√n=SE, so far I recollect.

Generally, Mean+_SEM is used now a days.

Thanks.

Manoj Kumar Dabi

For reporting samples' or replicates' characteristics, use Mean +/- SD. To describe a population, always use SEm. SD is an observed value while SEm or simply SE is an estimated value based on sample or replicate information.
