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 (28)
