White chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum cinerariifolium (Trev.)) is one of
the medicinal plants that has empirically been used by the community as a cure to various types of diseases; one of them known as anticancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the differences in anticancer activity and toxicity of flowers, leaves, stems and roots of chrysanthemum (C. cinerariifolium (Trev.)) against breast cancer cells (T47D cell line) and normal cells (Vero cell line). The extraction method used is called Ultrasonic-Assisted Extraction (UAE). Each extract was tested for anticancer activity against T47D cells and toxicity test against Vero cells using MTT method. The results showed that the extract of flowers, leaves, stems, and roots of C. cinerariifolium had different anticancer activity against T47D cells with IC50 (P <0.000) values, 772,94; 362,58; 168.46; and 293,81 μg / mL. Besides, C. cinerariifolium has different toxicity to Vero cell with the value of CC50 (P <0.009), consecutively; 701,46; 676,18; 569.18; and 728.19 μg / mL, and has SI value of 0.91; 1.86; 3.38; and 2.48. The extract that was declared and known to be selective in killing breast cancer cells (T47D) and safe against normal cells, were stem extracts with SI> 3 and IC50 values of 168.46 μg / mL.
