Cell Cytotoxicity Assay
Cell Line:
K562 Myeloid Leukemia Cells.
Concentration:
0-500 μM.
Incubation Time:
1 h or 24 h.
Result:
When K562 cells were incubated with PA for 1 h and then plated in soft agar, an IC
50
of -50 μM was observed. In contrast, when cells were incubated for 24 h with PA, the IC
50
was 1.25 μM.
