Asia, including Indonesia. Extract and fraction of Acalypha indica were sreened
for phytochemical constituents and investigated for its cytotoxicity against
human breast cancer MCF-7 using MTT assay. Ethanolic extract of A.indica showed
cytotoxicity against MCF-7 with an IC50 225 μg/ml. While for the fraction,
ethyl acetate fraction showed best cytotoxicity compared to n-hexane and water
fraction with an IC50 387 μg/ml. Phytochemical screening to the ethyl acetate
fraction showed that the fraction contain flavonoids, polyphenols, monoterpenes
