Fragrant rice is one of high quality and special rice other than Basmati and Ponni rice. To meet the growing consumer demand for fragrant rice, varieties development was conducted at the Malaysian Agricultural Research and Development Institute (MARDI) more than a decade ago. To date. two fragrant rice varieties have been declared by MARDI namely MRQ76 and h1RQ74. Varieties MRQ74 had been declared in 2005 has properties similar to Basmati rice. Meanwhile, varieties MRQ76 was declared in 2012 by the quality of the hoc flagrant. soft and slightly sticky and medium resistant to bacterial leaf blight, blast. and sheath blight. The characteristics are similar to Jasmine. a type of fragrant rice imported from Thailand By maintaining the positive features and advantages in terms of health studies that have been done 14 it was needed to explore more on the pharmaceutical value of the organic flagrant it varieties. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the anti-proliferative properties of a new variety of organic nee MRQ74 on 11T-29. HCT-116 and CT-26 all lines. The study on anti-proliferative properties against colon cancer had been chosen to be done as based on our knowledge, the results of hIRQ74 samples have not yet been repotted in any medical journal. Besides, colorectal cancer is the most common cancer that occurred among men and women in the world. In conjunction with that. the apoptosis-inducing capabilities induced by plants arc of point interest due to cost efficiency and have fewer aftereffects compared to synthetic antioxidants. Therefore the results presented in this study were significant and needed towards more fundamental study in the future.
