Figure 1From: Cytotoxic effects of cobalt and nickel ions on osteocytes in vitroCytotoxic effects of metal ion solution on MLO-Y4 osteocytes. Cytotoxicity of Na, Co, Cr, Mo, and Ni ions was analyzed by a WST-1 reagent after 48 hr. Cytotoxicity is demonstrated as relative to 0.00 (control). Mean values ± SD (n =6) are represented. The asterisk indicates statistically significant difference (**p <0.01 vs. control).Back to article page
