Potent Anticancer, Antioxidant and Antibacterial Activities of Isolated Flavonoids from Asplenium

Bioactive flavonoids derived from Asplenium nidus (fern) possess potent tumoricidal, anti-bacterial, anti-oxidant activities that are responsible for their chemo-preventive potential against multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens, Proteus mirabilis, Proteus vulgaris and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Fraction...
