  • Definitions: EAC: E, monolayer efflux; A, drug-stimulated ATPase; C, calcein-AM. Results are reported as yes (Y) or no (N). For efflux, yes = substrate and no = nonsubstrate; for ATPase assays, yes = stimulator and no = no activity; and for calcein-AM assay, yes = response >10% maximum fluorescence and no = response <10% maximum fluorescence.
