Abstract:
Screening 142 marine organisms extracts with three human cancer cell lines which were experimental grew in laboratory showed that: the number of agent having cytotoxic activity was rather high. Among 142 samples, 37 samples (26.1%) have resistant activity to at least 1 cell line. Of the 37 samples, 19 samples (7%) have resistant activity to two cell lines, 8 samples (5.6%) have resistant activity to 3 cell lines. The samples with remarkable activity have been collected with large quantity for chemical studies according to cytotoxic activity and related information
