| IC50 | 22.10 ± 1.2 µg/mL against MCF-7 | |
| Potency | There were also noticeable anticancer activities against MCF-7, HeLa, Jurkat, and HT-29 cell lines, with the highest anticancer activity in the extracts of Q. robur. | |
| Cell line/ mice model | MCF-7, HeLa, Jurkat, HT-29 | |
| Additional information | This is the first study that reveals not only novel sources of important polyphenols (e.g. ellagic acid) in Q. robur, Q. macrocarpa and Q. acutissima bark but also their anticancer activities against diverse cancer cell lines. | |
