Chelator concentrations are expressed as IBE. Cells were preloaded with iron, rinsed, and incubated with chelators, and cellular iron was determined as described in Figure 2. Results shown as the percentage iron released expressed as a percentage of T0 cellular iron and are the mean ± SEM of 4 replicates in 1 experiment percentage iron release after 8 hours of chelator treatment.
