Depigmenting Effect of Kojic Acid Esters in Hyperpigmented B16F1 Melanoma Cells

Figure 2

The effects of KAMO, KAML, KAMP, and KA on the viability of B16F1 melanoma cells. DMSO (5%) was used as a negative control. Cells were treated with various doses of KAMO, KAML, KAMP, and KA (7.81–500 μg/mL) for a total of 72 h incubation and were examined by MTT assay. Denotes *𝑃<0.05, **𝑃<0.01, ***𝑃<0.001 compared to untreated control. Data are presented as means ± S.E.M and expressed as % of control, 𝑛≥3.
