# Fold-apoptosis was calculated relative to untreated control by direct comparison of O.D. values at 405 nm (O.D. value of treatment group/O.D. value of untreated control). Inhibitory effect of scavengers (% Inhibition) was determined by the formula—[(a − b)/a] × 100, where a = fold apoptosis by Gossypol/ApoG2 and b = fold apoptosis in presence of scavenger (TU/SOD/Cat).
