Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HDFs were purchased from the Korean Cell Line Bank (Seoul, South Korea). The fibroblasts were grown in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 2 mM glutamine, and 1% penicillin–streptomycin–amphotericin B (10,000 U/mL, 10 g/mL, and 25 mg/mL, respectively; Gibco, Waltham, MA, USA) at 37 °C in a humidified incubator containing 5% CO2. Cell viability was analyzed as a function of ginseng concentration and treatment time using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) assay. The cells were plated into wells at a density of 2 × 104 cells/well. KRG was added to the wells at various concentrations (0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 1.0, and 2.0 mg/mL) and incubated for increasing durations (0, 6, 12, and 24 h). After incubation, EZ-Cytox solution (DoGen Bio, Seoul, Kores) was added to each well at 10 μL/well, and the plates were incubated at 37 °C for 1 h. The absorbance was measured at 450 nm using a Multiskan EX ELISA microplate reader (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Rockford, IL, USA).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
