Abstract

In this study, different concentrations of the methanolic extract of fruit pulp of the plant Syzygium cumini was subjected to in-vitro cytotoxic activity study against MCF-7cells using the MTT assay. Percentage cell viability of cell lines were carried out by using Trypan blue dye exclusion technique MTT assay was used to evaluate  the  reduction  of  viability  of  cell  cultures  in  the  presence  and  absence  of  the  extract. Cell viability was inhibited to different extents by different concentrations of the extract.
