    Functional Studies - Thiazolyl blue tetrazolium bromide (MTT), membrane-permeable dye (ab146345)

    NaHS protects viability of HEI-OC1 cells upon gentamicin toxicity.

    Gentamicin (GM) was added to the culture medium to a concentration of 0 (control), 1, 2.5 and 5 mM respectively incubated for 48 hours. Representative culture images (A) and viability measured by MTT assay (B) of HEI-OC1 cell culture after gentamicin (GM) treatment were shown.

    Scale bar 100 μm. Values were represented as the mean ± SEM from three independent experiments. * P < 0.05 vs control.
