Chemical Compound Gynecology, ToxinTest (Brine Shrimp Lethality Test) and Antioxidants (1,1-Diphenyl-2- Pikrilhydrazyl) from Saga Leaf Extract (Abrus Precatorius L.). Cytotoxicity effects and antioxidant activities of saga (Abrus precatorius L.) extract were studied by using Brine Shrimp Lethality Test and 1,1-diphenyl-2-pikrilhydrazyl assays.
