Trypan blue exclusion assay on Mode-K cells treated with different concentrations of plant extract of Centaurea ainetensis at 1, 3 and 10% for different time points up to 48 hr. 1% of the extract didn't cause any considerable cell death up to 12 h where the toxicity reached only 10%, however, it caused more than 60% cell death when incubated for 24 and 48 h. At 3%, the extract was not cytotoxic up to 6 h, but caused between 15 to 20% cell death in cells treated for 8 and 12 h; and more than 80% cell death when cells were treated with plant extract for longer periods of time. At 10%, the extract was not cytotoxic up to 6 h.
