Antitumour Activity
The screening of antitumour activity and
antimicrobial activity against Gram +ve
bacteria, Gram -ve bacteria, yeast and fungi
was carried out on isopropanol extracts
prepared from isolates of endophytic fungi
isolated from Jasminum sambac (L.) Ait. in
Malaysia. Sixteen endophytic fungal isolates
tested were also found to exhibit antitumor
activity in the yeast cell-based assay test
around the disk of 6 mm or more were
defined as positive for biological activity
