Isolation and Characterization of Novel Polar Flavonoids with Anticancer Effects - Matthew Tohatsu Tetteh

This research isolates and characterizes new flavonoids from Colona leonei with promising anti-cancer properties. These compounds selectively target cancer cells while sparing healthy ones. Upcoming tests will assess their effectiveness on cancer cell lines. The work also highlights preventive benefits of flavonoid-rich foods and frames cancer as a global, personal, and societal challenge.
