Abstract
The study of Cytotoxicity was widely used as a fundamental research and for paving way for drug discovery and to screen libraries for toxic compounds. In this study well known medicinal herbs Justicia gendarussa Burm f. plant leaves ethanolic extract was examined for their cytotoxicity activity by using PK-15 cells. This experiment was done by utilizing the procedure through cell viability assay. Thisassaycan be varied as the redox potential of the cell population and the integrity of cell membranes or with the activity of cellular enzymes such as esterase’s. This plant has significant effect on cytotoxicity activity on pk15 cell and the concentration ranges of about 25 - 500µg/ml were used in this study. According to results obtained it was understood that the ethanolic extract of the leaves of Justicia gendarussa Burm f. plant could be a possible source of herbal medicine for cancer-related ailments.
