Abstract :
The present study was aim to evaluate the cytotoxic activity by in-vitro brine shrimp lethality bioassay and thrombolytic potentials of methanolic extract of leaves of Podocarpus neriifolius. In brine shrimp bioassay, the crude methanolic extract of leaf showed strong cytotoxic activity with LC value of 18.24µg/ml compared to that of 0.839 µg/ml exhibited by standard vincristine sulphate. It has significant thrombolytic activity (44.82%) compared to standard streptokinase (77.66%). The results of this study confirm that this plant will be good candidate for future research of anticancer and thrombolytic drugs.
