“…In detail, 30,000 cells were plated in 25-cm 2 flasks with 5 ml of medium [three flasks/group/calculation day; 3 (flasks/day) ϫ 2 (MR vs control) ϫ 8 (calculation days) ϭ 48 (flasks/group)]. On days 2,4,8,12,14,16,18, and 21, cell numbers of the MR and control groups were calculated by using a cell counter system (Casy 1, Schärfe Systems, Reutlingen, Germany).…”
