In vitro cell evaluation of the Balb/3T3 cell line. Cytotoxicity screening after 2-h treatments with peel (A) and pulp (B) extracts. Protective effects of peel (C) and pulp (D) extracts from H2O2-induced oxidative stress, reported as cell viability % after 2-h treatments with 1500 μM H2O2 of pre-treated Balb/3T3 cells. H2O2 = stressed control; C = Collette; F = Faustrime; GA = gallic acid; PI = Pink Ice; R = Red; YS = Yellow Sunshine; *** = p value < 0.0001; ** = p value < 0.005; * = p value < 0.05 vs. stress.
