Chemical characterization,antioxidant and cytotoxic activities of methanolic extract of Hymenocrater longiflorus in Iraq
- Summary
- Hymenocrater longiflorus was first collected from northern of Iraq. Eleven chemical composition of this plant was investigated by usin HPLC-ESI/MS. Free radicals was evaluate by DPPH and cytotoxicity of RKO and U2OS cell line by MTT.these result observed that this plant have strong anticancer plant because of flavonoids and phenolic acid compounds.
- Technology Benefits
- A new plant with less or no side effect on human colon and osteosarcoma cancer
- Technology Application
- A novel anticancer plant extract on human cancer
- Detailed Technology Description
