Figure Lengend Snippet: As found by the WST-1 assay for the L929 cells (A) and Saos-2 cells (C) , and corresponding cytotoxicity as found by the LDH assay (B for L929 and D for Saos-2 cells). Green bars represent Titanium samples, and green/black striped bars represent UHMWPE samples. Each bar represents the average ± SD of three experiments, each including three samples. Significant differences as found by the Kruskal-Wallis multiple comparison test are displayed in (A) and (C) for untreated cells versus all other samples, and in all graphs for the uncoated sample extract versus all percentages of the coated samples. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
