(a and b): Effect of caffeic acid on cell viability of osteoblast‑like MG‑63 cells in 3, 6, 8 and 10 days of treatment. Illustrating the result of 3‑(4,5‑dimethyl‑2‑thiazolyl)‑2,5-diphenyltetrazolium cell viability assay of caffeic acid supplemented MG‑63 cells. The 10 and 20 mg/kg of caffeic acid treatment enhanced the cell viability of osteoblast‑like MG‑63 cells in 3, 6, 8 and 10 days of treatment (a). The viability of MG‑63 cells viability was displayed in a graph (b)
