The LC50 values of the crude methanol extract of leaves, seeds and stem-bark were found to be 25.82, 110.92, 179.89 μgm/ml respectively Among them crude methanol extract of leaves (25.82 μgm/ml) and methanol fraction of leaves (22.28 μgm/ml) showed a very promising cytotoxic activity. Further studies have been suggested to discover a novel bioactive compound from methanol fraction of leaves of <em>Clitoria ternatea</em>.  </p> <p>DOI: 10.3329/bjpp.v22i1.3564<em></em></p><p><em>Bangladesh J Physiol Pharmacol </em>2006; 22(1/2) : 18-21</p>}, number={1}, journal={Bangladesh Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology}, author={Rahman, AKM Shahidur and Arslan, Oqna; and Saha, Rama and Talukder, Nirupama and Khaleque, SMA and Ali, Husne Ara}, year={2009}, month={Oct.}, pages={18–21} }
