DU-145, MCF7, and HeLa) or Dulbecco’s Modified Minimal Essential
Medium (A375 and G-361) supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal
bovine serum (FBS) in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 at 37 °C. To assess the antiproliferative activity of the compounds,
cells were seeded at a density of 2500 cells/well (HeLa), 5000 cells/well
(A549, DU145, and A375) or 10000 cells/well (MCF7 and G-361) in 96-well
plates, and cell viability was measured using the MTT assay. Values
are reported as the mean ± SD of two independent experiments.

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.
