This survey, after extraction of fucoidan, have been conducted on its anticancer effects such as MTT assay, cell culture, viability and apoptosis. According to the results, within 24 h, cell viability at 1mg/ml of the extract reduced by 2% and at concentration of 60 mg/ml, reduced less than 30% and the IC50 was 20-30 mg/ml.
