Résumé

Traditional Unani medicine plays a major role in maintaining health in developing countries. For ages, Unani physicians have described many Classical Unani Formulations (CUF) for their anti-cancerous action ( Cytotoxic effect was assessed using MTT assay kit and free radical scavenging activity was done by using DPPH assay. Aqueous, hydro-ethanol and methanolic extracts were used at different concentrations. All extracts were shown good antioxidant and cytotoxic activity. Among all extracts, maximum cytotoxic effect was observed in methanolic extract and aqueous extract at the concentration of 1,000 μg against MCF-7 cell line in comparison to paclitaxel. The maximum antioxidant activity was observed in the hydroethanolic extract at the concentration of 1,000 μg against the MCF-7 cell line in comparison to ascorbic acid. The present study advocates, the anticancer and antioxidant property of
