Abstract
The study aimed at evaluating the effect of Ethanol Extract of Brassica Oleracea var. Italica (EEBO) against Dalton’s Ascitic Lymphoma (DAL) in Swiss Albino mice. The mice were injected with DAL cells (106 cells/mouse) intraperitoneally, followed by treatment with EEBO for 14 days at a dosage of 200mg and 500mg/kg. A significant decrease in the cancer cell number, tumour weight, tumour volume and increased life span of mice were observed. These results suggested the protective effect of EEBO against DAL.
