      <abstract><![CDATA[<p>The present study aimed to evaluate the antitumor activity of newly synthesized oxidized form of sodium hypochlorite. Different cell lines were susceptible to Sodium hypochlorite cytotoxicity at acute, LD<SUB>50</SUB> and therapeutic doses of NaOCl. Therapeutic dose of sodium hypochlorite modulated the significantly reduced level of Hb, IL-12, TNF and the increased levels of creatinine, GPT and GOT towards the normal values. The histopathological study of liver, kidney and spleen groups showed a very significant improvement compared to normal and positive control groups. Sodium Hypochlorite exhibited an anticancer effect on different cell lines <I>in vitro</I> and against EAC in mice.</p>]]></abstract>
