An SRB assay revealed that the numbers of colon cancer cells, Caco2/bbe (a), SKCO-1 (b) and SW620 cells (c), were significantly lower in the conditioned media from the Lactobacillus GG ATCC53103-, L. casei ATCC334-, L. coryniformis ATCC25600- and L. fermentis ATCC23271-treated groups than in the control group. The strongest tumour-suppressive effect against colon cancer cells was observed in the conditioned media from the L. casei ATCC334 group. The error bars show the s.d. (n=5).
