Abstract
Function against the cancerous cell by surgical or non surgical method is known as anticancer activity. Surgical method causes some dangerous side effect and it may not cure fully. Non surgical methods, especially herbal based treatment is better than radio therapy. In the present article, date seed and custard apple seed compounds were evaluated for in vitro anticancer activity with A549 human lung cancer cell line. The date seed and custard apple seed are extracted after shade dry and electrically ground. The IC50value of date seed and custard apple seed extract compounds were 31.2 µg/ml. The compounds in date seed and custard apple seed were identified by Gas Chromatography with Mass Spectroscopy.

Keywords: Date seed; Apple seed; Anticancer activity; A549 human lung cancer cell line.
