Effect of combination cellobiose/S/Se/vitamin C on HepG2, viability. Flow cytometry analysis and number of apoptotic and dead cells in HepG2 cancer cell line after treatment with unique cellobiose complex with vitamin C, sulphur and selenium (marked as C + VC + S + Se) together with the treatment of individual solutions of cellobiose (marked as C), vitamin C (marked as VC), sulphur (marked as S) and selenium (marked as Se) together with the possible blockade of DEVD-ase activity by z-VAD-fmk in the concentration range 0.001–1 mg/mL after 24 h. Grey bars are representing the percentage of apoptotic cells and black bars percentage of dead cells. Error bars denote mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05; ** p < 0.001; *** p < 0.0001
