Excoecarianin, Isolated from <i>Phyllanthus urinaria</i> Linnea, Inhibits Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2 Infection through Inactivation of Viral Particles

<table>The cytotoxic effect of excoecarianin (open bars) and ACV (dotted bars) toward Vero cells as determined by XTT assay. Various concentrations of excoecarianin or ACV were added to Vero cells. After 72 h of incubation, the XTT solution was added and then the optical densities were measured. The cytotoxic effect of excoecarianin and ACV were evaluated and the 50% cytotoxic concentration (CC<sub>50</sub>) was calculated. Each bar represents the mean ± SD of three independent experiments. The asterisk indicates significant difference between test sample and solvent control (<i>P</i> &lt; .05).</table>
