Cellular viability of BeWo cells exposed to MeHg-Cys. BeWo cells were exposed to various concentrations of MeHg-Cys for 30 min (A) or 16 h (B) at 37 °C and cell viability was measured using a methylthiazoletetrazolium (MTT) assay. The concentration of MeHg-Cys was reduced for the 16 h exposure because higher concentrations resulted in overt cell death. Results are presented as mean ± SE. Data represent 3 experiments performed in triplicate. *, significantly different (p < 0.05) from unexposed cells.
