This study was designed to evaluate the antimicrobial activity and cytotoxicity of selected plant extracts and its possibility to effect human health. Herbal medicines are used widely because of their potent therapeutic efficacy, antioxidant activities and no side effects. In this study, tested samples of herbs were prepared as water extracts and essential oils. All extracts were prepared from dry samples of Curcumin, Euterpe oleracea, Origanum vulgare, Panax Ginseng, Syzygium aromaticum and Zingiber officinale. Antimicrobial effect was tested on Staphylococcus aureus, Candida glabrata and Escherichia coli. Cytotoxicity was tested in by colorimetric MTT test on keratinocytes HaCaT and B16F1 and also on other cell lines, e.g. Caco-2, Raji. In all extracts was detected concentration dependent antimicrobial effect. Apoptosis, the cell’s natural mechanism for death, is a promising target for anticancer therapy. The hallmarks of cancer are present in all cancer cells regardless of the cause or type; these include uncontrolled growth, angiogenesis and apoptosis evasion. The prevention of cancer is one of the main functions of apoptosis. In this study was tested the apoptotic effects of selected plant extracts of Raji cell lines.
