Cytotoxicity effect of melastoma malabatricum on skin melanoma and cervical cancer in vitro
Melastoma Malabatricum is a local shrub, commonly known as senduduk that belongs to the family of Melastomataceae. The aim is to evaluate the potential anticancer activities of the different extracts from M. malabathricum. In this study, petroleum ether and chloroform were used in the extraction of...
