الملخص

Cancer is the major public difficulty and one of the top causes of death in the prosperous countries.
Conventional plants are precious source of novel cytotoxic agents and are still in performance playing a better role in health concern. The study was intended to estimation of the anti cancer activity of aqueous extract of punica granatium on Rhabdomyo sarcoma (RD) cell line.
