Figure Lengend Snippet: MTT assay and optical microscopy images showing the cytotoxicity of Cu–Ag–Al nanocomposites on (a)normal human epithelial cells (b) U87 glioblastoma cells, and (c) KB oral carcinoma cells, after 24 h exposure. Concentration-dependent cell viability trends indicate selective cytotoxicity toward cancer cells, while normal epithelial cells retained high viability (> 80 %) at tested concentrations. Data represent mean ± SD ( n = 3).
Article Snippet: MTT assay The cytotoxicity of the Cu–Ag–Al trimetallic nanocomposite (TNCNP) was evaluated using the MTT assay on normal human epithelial cells, oral human cancer cells (KB), and glioblastoma cells (U87), all procured from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC).
