Aim and Objective: To asses the anti-carcinogenic activity of solanum trilobactum on oral cell lines.
Background: Solanum trilobactum is one of the common Indian medicinal plants and it has been used in traditional medicine for many centuries. It consist of all the important nutrients required for the body. The plant possess a broad spectrum of antibiotic, antibacterial and anticancer activity. The main objective is to study the effect of anticarcinogenic activity of solanum trilobactum on oral cell lines.
Method: Assessment of anti-carcinogenic activity of solanum trilobactum towards oral cell lines was done by MTT calorimetric assay. The MTT assay is a colorimetric assay for assessing cell metabolic activity.
Result: The percentage of cell inhibition on the oral Cell line was about 75 while the concentration of the solanum trilobactum was 400microgram /ml.
