Abstract: | According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), seahorse (Hippocampus sp.) has been used to treat various diseases. It is believed that certain compounds from the seahorse have the potentiality to be developed into novel pharmaceutical drugs. To accomplish this assumption, a study was conducted whereby the crude extracts from male and female seahorse were tested against MCF-7 (human breast carcinoma) cancer cell line for cytotoxic activity. The selected male and female seahorses were dried, grinded, before being soaked in methanol. After a period of 5 to 12 days, methanol which contains all the bioactive compounds was separated from the grinded seahorse residue with a filter system. |
