Objectives:Acquiring pigment extract to evaluate the antioxidant and toxic activity for human lung and liver cancer cell lines.Method:Take Purple Cam stems and leaves to boil in distilled water; spin the vacuum to obtain a high pigment. This extract tested antioxidant activity, anti-inflammatory activity, and cytotoxic activity of A549 lung and Hep3B liver cancer in humans.Results: extracts from the leaves and purple mulberry leaves with an extraction efficiency of 9.16%, the pigment extract obtained with antioxidant activity at the test concentration of 500μg/ml had a percentage of inhibition (% Inhibition) reached 71.04. Both the test concentrations of 30 μg/ml and 100 μg/ml, the pigment of rosemary, have no anti-inflammatory activity but have the ability to killhuman lung cancer cells A549 and Hep3B human liver at levels average.Conclusion: The extract of Purple Cam does not show anti-inflammatory activity, but it is capable of killing human lung cancer cell and liver cancer
