摘要: The powdered leaf of Terminalia catappa was extracted using ethanol and partitioned into n-hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate aqueous methanol fractions. Test for the presence secondary metabolites showed alkaloids, reducing sugars, saponins, tannins, resins steroids in soluble fraction. antimicrobial assay chloroform fractions indicated a positive activity against bacterial isolates tested. Chloroform fraction Gram-negative Escherichia coli Salmonella typhi at 500ig/disc, while were active only on concentrations 300 – 500ig/disc. present study revealed that plant extracts contain phytochemicals responsible typhi.
