Indu S* and Annika D
ABSTRACT
The aim of the present work is to evaluate the anti-tumour potential of Madhuca indica flowers through preliminary cytotoxic analysis. Cytotoxic potential of methanol extract of Madhuca indica flowers was evaluated on chicken liver cell line through cell viability assay. Antioxidant study was carried out to evaluate the free radicals scavenging effect of flower extract. The positive response for cytotoxic and antioxidant activities of Madhuca indica flower extract may be due to its major nutritional components.
