To determine the cytotoxic effects, we used an MTT viability assay.</p><p class="Pa7"><strong>Results: </strong>The results showed that cell growth is significantly lower in extract treated cells compared to untreated control. The effect of inhibition of cell growth was shown in different concentration dosages for cytotoxic, antibacterial, and antioxidant activity <em>in vitro</em>.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>From the antibacterial results prove that the synthesized compounds showed the potential activity. These remarks may give the encouragement of further development of our research in this field. The antioxidant activity was also performed for the compound benzilic acid and its substituted analogs.<strong></strong></p>}, number={8}, journal={Asian Journal of Pharmaceutical and Clinical Research}, author={R, Sudha and Kanakam, Charles C and G, Nithya}, year={2018}, month={Aug.}, pages={463–466} }
