Electrochemically Reduced Water Protects Neural Cells from Oxidative Damage

Figure 8

Protective effect of ERW against glutamate toxicity on MCCNP cells. After MCCNP cells were treated with 0, 0.1, and 0.5 mM glutamate in the medium made of ERW or MQ-water for 24 h, nonviable cells were stained with trypan blue dye. Nonviable cells stained blue were counted for 8 randomly selected fields as one set and 4 sets for each treatment were counted under the microscope. Representative photographs are presented in (a) from which stained cell counts were statistically analyzed as shown in (b). Data are expressed as mean ± standard deviation (SD) for four independent experiments. .
