The objective of the present study is to evaluate the cytotoxic activity of Cuminum cyminum Linn ethanolic extract using in-vitro study. Following seven human cancer cell lines Colon 502713, Colo-205, Hep-2, A-549, OVCAR-5, PC-5, SF-295 were taken. The anti-cancer properties of cumin seed was determined using SRB assay. Activity was found to be 25%, 61%, 40%, 31%, 31%, 28%, 27% against SF-295, Colon 502713, Colo-205, Hep-2, A-549, OVCAR-5, PC-5 human cancer cell lines respectively. Cuminum cyminum Linn extract showed 61% maximum activity against Colon 502713 cell line.
