(a) MTT viability test. HaCaT cells were incubated with the indicated amount of EtOAc organic extract for 48 and 72 h. The values were the mean’s six values for each experimental point of two independent biological replicates. Each mean was compared using a Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test of ANOVA one‐way (p‐value *< 0.01, ** < 0.05, ***p < 0.001; ****p < 0.0001). (b) Cell proliferation rate. HaCaT cells were plated and treated with EtOAc extract at the indicated concentrations. Following the treatment, they were counted with the Scepter cell counter, at times 0 and 24, 48, and 72 h, creating the proliferation curve. There is no significant change in the proliferation rate of the treated cells, compared to the DMSO control
