Antioxidant and cytotoxic properties of two sea cucumbers, holothuria edulis lesson and stichopus horrens selenka

Sea cucumbers are marine invertebrates of the phylum of Echinodermata that have been used in Asian traditional medicine since ancient times. This study was conducted to investigate the antioxidant and cytotoxic properties of aqueous and organic extracts from two sea cucumber species, Holothuria ed...
