1 × 104 SU-DHL-2 or SU-DHL-6 cells were incubated into the 96‐well plates in 100 μL serum medium per well. A series of two-fold dilutions of decoctions were carried out to give concentrations of 10, 5, 2.5, 1.25, 0.625 and 0.313 mg/ml. Untreated tumor cells and complete medium (blank control) were left as control groups. After 48 h incubation, 10 µL of CCK8 (AbMole Bioscience) was added into all wells and the plates were further incubated for 2 h. Then, the plates were read at 450 and 630 nm as reference wavelength. After background subtraction, half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) was calculated using the SPSS 20.0 (IBM, United States). The experiments were repeated in triplicate for each inhibitor concentration.

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.
