5. TOXICITY Id <strong>497</strong>-<strong>19</strong>-8<br />

Date <strong>19</strong>.02.2003<br />

80<br />

Also a marked increase in pH of treatment solutions > 500 microg./ml.<br />

However, a similar decrease in TER was seen when the pH was adjusted to<br />

neutral pH using 1 M hydrochloric acid. Some recovery of TER by 24 hr.<br />

-Cytotoxicity: MTT and NRU measurements showed toxicity, IC50s being<br />

4770 and 3840 microg./ml resp.<br />

Test condition : CELL C ULTURE:<br />

- Under controlled culturing conditions<br />

ADMINISTRATION / EXPOSURE IN VITRO<br />

- Duration of test/exposure: 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6 or 24 hr.<br />

- Doses: 0, 1000, 3000, 5000 microg/ml<br />

OBSERVATIONS IN VITRO:<br />

- TER = transepithelial resistance was measured, prior to treatment and<br />

after treatment in triplicate<br />

- Cytotoxicity was measured by NRU (neutral red uptake) and MTT<br />

measurements, 8 times after 20 hr of treatment. This was repeated three<br />

times.<br />

STATISTICAL METHODS: ANOVA or Students's t-test was used.<br />

Test substance : SOURCE: Not reported.<br />

PURITY: Not reported.<br />

IMPURITY/ADDITIVE/ETC.: Not reported.<br />

ANY OTHER INFORMATION: Not reported.<br />
