Figure 1. Crude Ethanolic Extract of Long Pepper (PLX) Effectively Reduces the Percentage of Viable Cancer cells in a Dose & Time Dependent Manner.

Figure 1

Colon (HCT116), Ovarian (OVCAR-3), Pancreatic (BxPC-3) cancer and Melanoma (G-361) cells were treated with a crude ethanolic extract of long pepper (PLX), following which they were incubated with WST-1 cell viability dye for 4 hours. Absorbance was read at 450 nm and expressed as a percent of the control. Values are expressed as mean ± SD from quadruplicates of 3 independent experiments. **P<0.0001.
