The anticancer and antimycotic activity of crude and extracted honey samples of three different Egyptian fl oral sources (Cassia javanica, Citrus reticulata and Ziziphus spina-Christi) against colon, breast and liver tumor cell line (HCT-116, HTB-26 and HepG2) and over clinical dermatophytes (Tricophyton, Microsporum and Epidermophyton), which are involved in dermatomycosis and dermatophytosis including cutaneous infections in cancer patient were evaluated in vitro study. Cassia honey showed antifungal activity against Epidermophyton and Microsporum species with inhibition zone ranged from 15 to 28 mm and it showed moderate cytotoxic activity against colon and breast cancer with the weakest cytotoxic activity against liver cancer. Crude Citrus honey exhibited potent antimycotic activity against Tricophyton species with inh.. View More»
