This study was performed to investigate the cytotoxic effect of the Prunus mume extracts containing beverages on the growth of SNU-16 gastric cancer cell, SNU-C2A colon cancer cell, SNU-449 liver cancer cell and HeLa cervical cancer cell. The inhibitory effect on the growth of the cancer cell lines was examined by MTT(3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay, cytotoxicity test and microscopy. Also this study aimed to compare the changes of blood electrolytes and osmolarity during submaximal exercise for the intake of the Prunus mume extracts containing beverages. 20% Prunus mume extracts containing beverage exhibited the greatest inhibitory effect on the growth of SNU-16 and significantly inhibited at the concentration of 1000 micro g/mL in the MTT assay. Morphological changes in SNU-16 which treated with the same beverage were observed under inverted microscope. The change of blood electrolytes and osmolarity during submaximal exercise showed no significant differences between before and after intake of the beverage in both groups.
