Table 5 Hemolytic activity of the ethanol extracts of Salicornia europaea prepared by different dry methods against human red blood cell (hRBC)

Chemicals/Samples (mg/mL)	Hemolysis against hRBC (%)
DMSO	-0.6±1.61)a2)
Triton-X 100 (1.0).	100.4±1.4b
Amphotericin B (0.02)	100.8±2.5b
Freeze drying (1.0)	-2.1±0.1a
Hot-air drying (1.0)	-0.8±0.8a
Shade drying (1.0)	2.3±2.0a

Data are presented as the mean±SD of three determinations. Hemolytic activity was evaluated using 4% human red blood cell and the relative hemolysis (%) was calculated by following equation.
Different superscripts within a column differ significantly (p<0.05).
Hemolytic activity(%)=[(Abs. S-Abs. C)/(Abs. T-Abs. C)]×100 (For Abs. S, Abs. C and Abs.T, refer the materials and methods).
