Abstract

Based on the findings of this study, natural sources may become an integral part of cancer treatment. Honey is a well-known natural substance that has been utilised in traditional medicine for centuries. MCF-7 cells are a sample of eukaryotic cells. It is comprised of breast cancer cells. This experiment is conducted for 24 hrs with Tualang (wild bee) and Kelulut (stingless bee) honey of varying concentrations (100, 75, 50, 25, and 10 percent). This experiment revealed that Tualang extract has anti-cancer capabilities; increasing the concentration of the extract reduces the viability of cancer cells. In contrast, Kelulut displays the opposite. Kelulut outperformed Tualang in terms of wound closure time during the scratch test. It is highly possible that this recent finding will have impact on biomedical research which cannot be understated.
