Article Title: Anti-Herpes Simplex 1 Activity of Simmondsia chinensis (Jojoba) Wax

doi: 10.3390/molecules26196059

Figure Lengend Snippet: The impact of simmondsin on HSV-1 infection. Vero cells were treated with or without increasing concentrations of Simmondsin for 96 h. Then, cell viability was determined by the MTT assay ( A ). The impact of Simmondsin on HSV-1 infected Vero cells in comparison to Jojoba wax (JD-4; 8 µg/mL) is presented ( B ). A similar test was performed to compare the anti-viral action of Jojoba to 8 µg/mL PA ( C ). Mean ± SEM; n = 3; * p < 0.05 in comparison to the infected control. AC-acyclovir; PO–petroleum oil.

Article Snippet: Simmondsin was purchased from BOC Sciences (Shirley, NY, USA).
