Percent cells staining PI+ following 20 or 24 hours of incubation

Results shown (means and SD) were averaged from 3 individual healthy donors with each experiment done in triplicate

Ascorbate/mannitol, MGd/mannitol, and catalase/mannitol controls resulted in 10% to 14% PI+ cells following 24-hour incubation with PBLs

§

Results shown (means and SD) were averaged from 3 or more independent experiments done in triplicate for each time point
