The cytotoxicity effect of extracted polysaccharide of Fusarium was evaluated by MTT assay (Mosmann, 1983 (link)). Two human cancer cell lines were employed including HeLa cells and LCLs. These two cell lines were obtained from the cell culture unit of molecular biology laboratory, Karaj Islamic Azad University, Alborz, Iran.
The cells were grown in 96 well plate (Greiner, Germany) in PRMI 1640 medium (GIBCO, Grand Island, NY) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum. The cell suspension (105 cell/ml) was seeded in every well and incubated at 37 °C for 48 h in 5% CO2 for the formation of confluent monolayer. The monolayer of cells was exposed to various dilutions (10, 50, 100 mg/ml) of a polysaccharide extract for 24 h. The cell viability was measured using the MTT assay. The MTT solution (5 mg/ml) was added to the culture wells and the plates were incubated at 37 °C for 3 h. The optical density (OD) of the well contents was measured at 553 nm with an ELISA plate reader (Voller et al., 1978 (link)). ELISA is a simple method which enjoys some advantages such as portability of the equipment, hand-holding validation, and reliability for the analysis of samples (Kamkar et al., 2014 , Mozaffari Nejad et al., 2013 , Mozaffari Nejad et al., 2014 , Eslami et al., 2015 ). Cell control was maintained throughout the experiment and the assay was performed in triplicates.

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.
