متن کاملEvaluation of antitumor activity of Manilkara zapota leaves against Ehrlich ascites carcinoma in mice
This study has been designed to explore in vivo the antitumuor activity of the ethyl acetate extract of leaves of Manilkara zapota (EALM) against Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC). The antitumour activity of EALM against EAC was evaluated at doses of 50, 100 and 200 mg kg–1 day–1. Intraperitoneal treatment with EALM (at 100 and 200 mg kg–1 day–1) showed a significant increase in survival time and...
