IN <I>VITRO</I> ANTIMITOTIC EFFECT OF METHANOLIC EXTRACTS OF SEAWEEDS SPECIES FROM THE COLOMBIAN CARIBBEAN COST

Searching for new chemotherapy strategies for cancer treatment, numerous traces of antitumor activity have been reported from different species of seaweeds extracts. This study is carried out an evaluation of the antitumor activity with methanolic extract of six species of seaweeds collected in the...
