Antiskin Cancer and Antioxidant Activities of Formulated Agar from Brown Seaweed Laminaria digitata (Hudson) in Dimethyl Benzanthracene-Induced Swiss Albino Mice

Table 1

Experimental design.

Group 1	Normal control mice (normal diet and water)
Group 2	Cancer-induced mice (100 nM DMBA dissolved in 200 μl acetone was applied topically weekly twice for four weeks)
Group 3	FA (low dose)—60 mg/ml in 200 μl acetone was applied topically weekly twice for four weeks, 30 min before DMBA exposure (100 nM DMBA dissolved in 200 μl acetone was applied topically weekly twice)
Group 4	FA (high dose)—120 mg/ml in 200 μl acetone was applied topically weekly twice for four weeks, 30 min before DMBA exposure (100 nM DMBA dissolved in 200 μl acetone was applied topically weekly twice)
Group 5	Positive control: 5-FU-100 mg/ml in 100 ml acetone was applied topically weekly twice for four weeks, 30 min before DMBA exposure (100 nM DMBA dissolved in 200 μl acetone was applied topically weekly twice)
