Abstract: Two biological assays utilising in-vitro uptake of H-thymidine into TLX/5 lymphoma and rat basophilic leukaemia cells have been used for rapid detection and subsequent isolation of active compounds from the latex of Euphorbia garuana (Euphorbiaccae). Two potent esters were characterized from the latex of E. garuana reportedly used in traditional medicine for the treatment of certain forms of cancer.
