Figure 4. Cell viability after exposure to ZnO nanoparticles.
Cells were exposed to low, medium and high doses of ZnO NP in DMEM in digests for four hours prior to the cell viability assessment. For panels A & B, data was analyzed with a one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparison test and data was considered significant at p<0.05. Mean±SEM is shown, n = 32. In panel C a two-way ANOVA compares the means of each column to each other, Tukey groups are shown and data was considered significant at p<0.05. Mean±SEM is shown, n = 32. Bars that do not share any letters are significantly different statistical analysis. Low, medium and high refer to the dose of ZnO nanoparticles, where low = 9.7 × 10−6 mg/mL, medium = 9.7 × 10−4 mg/mL, and high = 9.7 × 10−2 mg/mL.
