a Concentration of intracellular zinc in HOK cells treated with a ZnSO4 and b ZnC, at increasing concentrations of Zn. 0 μM represents cells grown in Zn-depleted medium. Groups not sharing the same letter are significantly different to each other (P values refer to One-way ANOVA analysis: P < 0.05). Results shown are mean ± standard error (n = 6). NM not measurable. b Level of viable cells in cultures treated with a ZnSO4 and b ZnC at increasing Zn concentration measured via MTT assay. Groups not sharing the same letter are significantly different to each other (P values refer to One-way ANOVA analysis: P < 0.05). Results shown are mean ± standard error (n = 6)
