| evaluation of cytotoxic and radical-scavenging activities of root extracts of schleichera oleosa (lour.) oken. | in the present study root extracts of schleichera oleosa were prepared and analysed for hydroxyl radical scavenging potential in different in vitro models, such as deoxyribose degradation (site-specific and non-site specific) and plasmid nicking assays. the extracts were found to have profound effects in both assays by scavenging of hydroxyl radicals. the extracts were also assessed for in vitro cytotoxicity in a sulphorhodamine b dye assay against a panel of cell lines representing different ty ... | 2011 | 21988592 |
