Summary of the effects of the environmental toxins on cardiac spheroids.
Environmental toxins on cardiac organoids | Range of Doses | Live/Dead Effective Dose | IC50 | Heart beat effective dose at 30 min | Heart beat effective dose at 24 h | Heart beat effective dose at 48 h |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Glyphosate | 25 µM–25 mM | 2.5–25 mM | 10.85 mM | 2.5 mM | 2.5 mM | 2.5 mM |
Lead | 10 µM–10 mM | 1–10 mM | 2.45 mM | 10 mM | 100 µM | 100 µM |
Mercury | 200 nM–200 µM | 2–20 µM | 44 µM | 2 µM | 2 µM | 2 µM |
Thallium | 10 nM–10 µM | 10–100 µM | 1.35 µM | 10 µM | 1 µM | 1 µM |
Effective dose for live/dead imaging is summarized as a qualitative measure of rapid cell death detected in images. Effective dose for heart beat assay at each time point is described by a p-value of 0.05.
