| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cell-based assays, fungal cells or relevant mammalian cell lines are cultured in appropriate media. For antifungal activity, fungal cells (e.g., Candida albicans, Aspergillus species) are treated with Pseudolaric acid A-O-β-D-glucopyranoside at concentrations ranging from 0.125-128 μg/mL. Fungal growth is monitored by measuring optical density at 600 nm, and MIC values are determined. For antifertility studies, relevant cell lines (e.g., reproductive cells) are treated with the compound and cell viability, proliferation, and function are assessed. Cytotoxicity in mammalian cells is evaluated using MTT or CCK-8 assays to determine the selectivity index. Apoptosis may be assessed by flow cytometry.

Survival rates, fungal burden in tissues, and histopathological changes are assessed. For antifertility studies, rodents are treated with the compound and reproductive parameters (fertility rate, litter size, sperm count, hormonal levels) are evaluated. Organ weights and histopathology are examined at study endpoint. Vehicle control and positive control groups are included.
