roswell park memorial institute ( rpmi-1640 ) , fetal calf serum ( fcs ) , and phosphate buffer saline were procured from gibco , usa . the trypsin - ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid , trypan blue , penicillin - streptomycin solution , dimethylsulfoxide ( dmso ) , and 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide ( mtt ) were purchased from sigma - aldrich , usa . all other solvents and chemical used were of analytical grade and procured from merck india ltd .
the drug samples were purchased from local market of delhi , india and the specimen ( ref .
niscair / rhmd / consult/-2010 - 11/1563/161/27/10 - 10 ) authenticated by botanist dr h. b. singh , scientist f and head raw material herbarium and museum , niscair , new delhi .
the extraction was done by taking 500 g of powdered drug and extracting it using 70% alcohol as a solvent in soxhlet extractor on a water bath for 5 h. it was filled and evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure .
further , the ethanolic extract of b. monnieri , whole plant thus obtained was suspended in double distilled water and sonicated for 15 min at 45c .
the extract , left after partitioning , was evaporated to dryness and residue was sonicated with acetone , methanol and water for 20 min separately , to prepare different fractions .
all the fractions were evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure , and the dried extract and fractions were further used for analysis and bioactivity .
it was prepared by dissolving 500 mg of each extract / fraction in dmso and volume was made upto 10 ml in a volumetric flask , separately .
these solutions were passed through 0.45  membrane filtered and stored at 4c until used .
the 50 mg / ml solution of every extract / fraction as prepared above was diluted 50 times using rpmi-1640 media ( 150 ml ) to get concentration of 1,000 g / ml of every extract / fraction .
it was passed through 0.22  membrane filter before using for in vitro activity on two different cell lines .
the cells culture was trypsinated , and the cell count was adjusted to 1.0  10 cells/100 l in rpmi-1640 containing 10% fcs . to each well of the 96-well microtiter plate , ( approximately 100 l media contain 10,000 cells ) was added and kept it in the co2 incubator overnight for adhering of cells on plate .
next day , the media was replaced with fresh complete media ( 100 l ) .
the drug ( 100 l ) was added in triplicate well ( for one concentration ) . then , serial dilution of the drug was done , again 100 l of complete media was added to get the total volume of 200 l ( 100 l + 100 l ) . after completing the treatment ,
after 24 h study , 20 l of mtt was added and left for 34 h in a co2 incubator and after that the media was discarded from the wells carefully .
the vehicle ( 100 l dmso ) was added for dissolving the formazan crystals formed after addition of mtt , and left for 30 min in the co2 incubator .
the plate was read spectrophotometrically done at 570 nm at 24 h , 48 h , and 72 h. percentage cytotoxicity of these extracts was calculated by using the formula : where , ac is the absorbance of the control and as is the absorbance of the sample .

the results showed good cytotoxic activity in dcm fraction in both the cell lines may be due to the presence of cucurbitacins and betulinic acid in dcm fraction .
background : the ethanolic extract of bacopa monnieri contains bacoside a and b , brahmin , cucurbitacins , and betulinic acid . 
 currently , cucurbitacins have also been reported for their strong anti - tumorigenic and anti - proliferative activity by inducing cell cycle arrest at the g2/m phase and formation of multiplied cells . 
 the present study was carried out to evaluate the in vitro cytotoxic activity of ethanolic extract of dichloromethane ( dcm ) fraction of b. monnieri on two different cell lines.materials and methods : the ethanolic extract of b. monnieri was prepared using soxhlet extraction method and different fractions ( hexane , dcm , methanol , acetone , and water ) of ethanolic extracts were prepared . 
 the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay of ethanolic extract and of all fractions was carried out on mcf-7 and mda - mb 231 cell lines . 
 the presence of cucurbitacins and betulinic acid in these fractions was confirmed by high - performance thin layer chromatography.results:the ic50 values of ethanolic extract of b. monnieri in mcf-7 and mda - mb 231 cell lines were 72.0 g / ml and 75.0 g / ml , respectively . 
 the dcm fraction of b. monnieri showed maximum cytotoxic activity among all fraction upto 72 h and was found to be 57.0 g / ml and 42.0 g / ml , respectively.conclusion:the results showed good cytotoxic activity in dcm fraction in both the cell lines may be due to the presence of cucurbitacins and betulinic acid in dcm fraction .
