Figure 1. Cytotoxicity of tilapia piscidin 3 (TP3) in baby hamster kidney cells (BHK-21), and antibacterial activity.

Figure 1

A.-C. BHK-21 cells were treated with the indicated doses of TP3 for 24 h. Cell viability was measured by neutral red, LDH, and MTT assays. (R = 3; N = 6). “p” indicates treatment with 10% triton-X-100, “c” indicates no treatment. D. MRSA was cultured in the indicated concentrations of TP3. Relative bacterial proliferation was determined based on optical density at 600 nm. (R = 3; N = 6). Values with different letters show significant differences (P < 0.05), as determined by ANOVA. “P” indicates TP3 treatment, “M” indicates treatment with medium alone.
