Cytotoxicity Assay of Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (Pbmc) treated with Gynura Procumbens extract / Adderly Izna Isaac
Gynura procumbens, or also known as “Sambung nyawa” is a type of herbs that is widely used in South East Asian countries, particularly in Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand. It is traditionally used for treatment of many diseases such as cancer, kidney diseases, migraine, hypertension and diabetes. Th...
