Abstract: | Limax is a mollusk with lung, the whole body of which has manifested medicinal values. It can be taken orally and used externally. The experimental studies on the antitumor effect of Limax on NIH mice bearing ARS (ascites type) or Lewis lung carcinoma were carried out by using tumor inhibitory rate, tumor mean diameter doubling time, tumor growth delay time or the host existence time as the experimental indexes. The initial results indicated that the mixed suspension liquid of Limax had an obviously inhibitory effect upon the above mentioned experiment tumors. |
