Abstract: Objective:To evaluate the cyotoxicity of diffirent doses ursolic acid and its inhilition effect on cytoxicity of acrylamide. Methods:Diffirent test matters were loaded on the culture plate.The viability of cells was evaluated by MTT assay to investigate cell proliferation. Optical density(OD) was measured by a spectrophotometer at 490 nm. Then the cytotoxicity grade was evaluated according to the means of cell proliferation and the statistical significance. Result:Ursolic acid is innoxious to the tested cells. It has great inhibition effect on cyotoxicity of acrylamide.

Key words: ursolic acid, cytotoxicity, acrylamide
