[In Vitro]

Ferrous bisglycinate (25-200 μM; 2 h) does not affect the Caco-2 cells viability[2]. Ferrous bisglycinate (25 μM; 2 h) increases ferritin content in the Caco-2 cells[2]. Cell Viability Assay[2] Cell Line: Caco-2 cells Concentration: 0, 25, 50, 100, 200 μM Incubation Time: 2 hours Result: Did not affect the viability of wild-type and divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1) knockout Caco-2 cells. Western Blot Analysis[2] Cell Line: Caco-2 cells Concentration: 25 μM Incubation Time: 2 hours Result: Increased ferritin content and decreased DMT1 expression levels significantly in the wild-type cells.

[In Vivo]

Ferrous bisglycinate (500 mg/kg iron; p.o.) exerts a protective effect on colitis in mice[3]. Animal Model: Female C57BL/6 mice are induced colitis by dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)[3] Dosage: 500 mg/kg iron Administration: P.o. (add to the diet) for 10 days Result: Had the best survival rates (100%). Caused the least body lost (9% body loss).
