In Vitro Screening of Herbal Extracts for Cytotoxicity in Normal Cell Lines
Abstract: The research activity has been framed; to study the cytotoxic action of Bombax Ceiba belongs to the family Bombacaceae. A detailed study has been performed by using ethanolic extract of the fruit peel of the plant Bombax Ceiba. The whole cytotoxic activity of the extracts was performed on brine shrimp. The presences of phenolic compound in Ethanolic extract of Bombax Ceiba fruit peel were showed potent Cytotoxicity. The whole preliminary phytochemical screening of the extract showed the presence of carbohydrate, glycosides, alkaloids, protein, amino acid, flavonoids, phenols and tannins. This work provides a scientific support for the high cytotoxic activity of this plant and thus it may find potential applications in the treatment of the diseases.
Keywords: Bombax ceiba, Brine Shrimp, phenolic compound, Cytotoxic activity
