Figure Lengend Snippet: U87 and U118 glioblastoma cell viability. Notes: Cell viability was determined using the XTT assay. Cells were exposed to diamond nanoparticles (ND), graphite nanoparticles (NG), and graphene oxide (nGO) at concentrations of 10, 20, 50, 100, and 200 μg/mL for 24 h. Values are expressed as mean ± standard deviation (n=4, each experiment in duplicate). Statistical significance between control (C) and the treated cells is indicated by an asterisk (multifactor analysis of variance [ANOVA]; P <0.05). There was statistical significance between U87 and U118 viability ( P =0.0000) and the interaction between cell line and the type of nanoparticle ( P =0.0000).
