Abstract

Background/aim: The aim of this research is to investigate the potential beneficial effects of Yemen Sidr honey on human gingival fibroblast and osteoblast cell viability and proliferation. Materials and methods: MTT assays were conducted, and the cells were analyzed using an ELISA reader at 590nm. Cell viability was determined based on the optical density readings. Results: At a lower concentration 5μL, the fibroblast and osteoblast cells exhibited a cell viability percentage of over 50%. Conclusion: Yemen Sidr honey is biocompatible and non-toxic to the cultured fibroblast and osteoblast cells.
