The Effects of Bairesi Complex Prescription (a Uyghur Medicine Prescription) and Its Five Crude Herbal Extracts on Melanogenesis in G-361 Cells

Figure 1

Effect of the EtOH extracts of the Bairesi complex prescription and the five crude herbs on cell viability and melanin content in G-361 cells. The cells were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium containing 10% FBS for three days and subsequently diluted and incubated again in fresh medium with or without a sample. Cell viabilities and melanin contents were measured 72 h later as described in Section 2. The results are representative of three separate determinations. Each point is the mean (±SD) of three experiments. , , .
