There was no cytotoxic effect of the date extracts on human lymphocyte and monocyte cells. The results showed that the ideal concentrations of different date extracts have a protective effects of tamer (Barhi, Zahdi and Khistawy) to the lymphocyte and monocyte cells and may be that because these date extracts contain antioxidants in various type of dates.
