Figure 6

Effect of four different concentrations of nelfinavir (A), indinavir (B), zidovudine (C) and didanosine (D) on intestinal cell proliferation after 24 h and 48 h of exposure by detected absorbance using an ELISA microplate reader at 420 nm in 96 well plates seeded with IEC-6 cells. After an exposure time of 24 h and 48 h, with the antiretroviral drugs, 10 uL of the tetrazolium salt was added to each well, and absorbance was measured after 4 h of incubation. * P < 0.05 when compared to control group (C) incubated in standard DMEM media using one-way ANOVA and Bonferroni's test.
