Abstract
Acanthophora sp specimens were collected from a seashore and washed with distilled water. The washed specimens were then air-dried and ground into a fine powder. The powdered samples were extracted methanol, using the Soxhlet extraction method. The extracted solutions were concentrated using a rotary evaporator and freeze-dried to obtain crude extracts. phytochemical tests on Acanthophora specifera extracts, with different reagents, can be used depending on the class of compounds being tested. Cell viability tests are used to evaluate the cytotoxicity of algal extracts on cancer cells. These tests involve the incubation of cancer cells with different concentrations of algal extracts, followed by the assessment of cell viability using a colorimetric assay such as the MTT assay. The study reveals the presence of phytochemical compounds in Acanthophora speciera and its anti-cancer activity.
