  1. The anti-tumoral effect was determined by examining the tumor weight and calculating the inhibition rate as described below. The value of P (p<0.005) was calculated according to the tumor weight at every experiment group.
  2. ※Each dose was tested in 12 mice every other day for 10 days;
  3. *Inhibitory rate = [(tumor weight of control mice-tumor weight of experimental mice)/tumor weight of control mice]x100%.
