Screening of Chilean plants for anticancer activity. I
Abstract
Extracts prepared from 519 samples of plant material were evaluated for anticancer activity against the usual systems. The results of the antitumor testing showed that 156 of these extracts gave initial indications of anticancer activity in one or more tumor systems. The activity was confirmed in 14 samples.
