Abstract
This paper represents the antitumours potentialities of the crude rhizomatous extract of Curcuma aromatica Salisb. and leaf extract of Ixora coccinea L. First, the crude extract from two different plants were taken separately for antitumour screening and then both the extract used simultaneously to evaluate the better efficiency of the herbal formulation. The extract mixture shows higher efficiency in respect to antitumour potentiality than either of the plant when used solely. After that, I performed sequential solvent partitioning of the extract mixture to locate which fraction actually carries the antitumour one. Diethyl ether fraction was found to contain some bioactive phytochemical(s) that can be of ecofriendly use to control the tumorous growth of the biological systems.
