Table 2 Effect of the studied plant extracts and Ketosteril (Ks) on the viability of the untreated Vero cells and their effective doses (ED100) that produced 100% therapeutic response from the carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced nephrotoxicity

From: In vitro anti-nephrotoxic potential of Ammi visnaga, Petroselinum crispum, Hordeum vulgare, and Cymbopogon schoenanthus seed or leaf extracts by suppressing the necrotic mediators, oxidative stress and inflammation
