Baicalein Cytotoxicity Evaluation in H1975

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Baicalein was purchased from Shanghai Yuanye Bio-Technology, Co., Ltd. (HPLC ≥ 98%, shanghai, China). Test samples were dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) (Sigma, United States) to get 100 mM, as a stock solution, and then stored at 4°C, it was not degrade due to high concentration of DMSO. The final dilutions of DMSO added to the culture medium never exceeded 0.1% what insured there was no effect on cell viability.
H1975 cells in the logarithmic phase were seeded at a density of 1 × 105 cells/ml in 96-well culture plates. After incubated 48 h, cells were exposed to different concentrations of Baicalein (1.675, 3.125, 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, and 150 μmol/L), RAW264.7 and H1975 cells have the same experimental protocol. After treatment for 48 h, then, 10 μl of CCK-8 assay (Best Bio, Shanghai, China) was added to each well and the cells were incubated for 1–4 h at 37°C and 5% CO2. A plate reader was used to detect the optical density (OD) absorbance at 450 nm. The cell viability was calculated as: OD of treatment/OD of control × 100%.

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.
