Cytotoxic effects of EO-ACs on HEK-293. (A) The cytotoxic effect of thymol, carvacrol, and citral on normal human renal cells viability (B) Brightfield and fluorescence microscopy of HEK-293 cells before and after treatment with thymol, carvacrol, and citral at their respective MIC80. Control and treatment panels show fluorescence images stained with acridine orange (AO) and ethidium bromide (EB) for live/dead cells (Green: live cells and Red: dead cells). Yellow arrows indicate dead renal cells. The brightfield images were taken using 10X objective lens and fluorescence images were taken using a 40X objective lens. Scale bar 50 μm.
