Cytotoxicity profile of MCTG107b (a) and MCTG214(3b1) (b) derived biosurfactants in the THLE3 in vitro liver model. THLE3 cells were incubated with increasing concentrations (0.25–3 mg/mL) of (a) MCTG107b and (b) MCTG214(3b1) for 24, 48, or 72 h. Table showing EC50 values for all incubation periods. (c) The viability of cells was determined by utilizing the alamar blue assay. The results are shown as the mean ± SD and are representative from three independent experiments. Note: *** p < 0.001 vs. control (untreated cells).
