Research on Cerrado species and bioproducts is an important means of disseminating biological resources, aiming at the conservation of the biome and contributing to the dissemination of knowledge about benefits for human health. Therefore, the use of natural products has been the subject of investigations in several to assess the beneficial potential of bioproducts. In this paper, the antitumor effect against strains of Rhyzobuimradiobacter was investigated using the potato disc methodology. The cold-pressed oil of Dipteryxalata(D. alata) almonds, rich in unsaturated fatty acids, presented promising results that allow us to conclude that there was a significant inhibition of the tumoral activity of R. radiobacter.
