Proximate composition, phytochemical and antimicrobial activity of aqueous and ethanolic extracts of Hunteria umbellata on some clinical isolates

A medicinal plant is any which has therapeutic used and are for drug production. The use of plants traditional uses well known in rural areas many developing countries. This study was undertaken to evaluate the antibiotic importance extracts Hunteria umbellata against selected clinical isolates cause diseases man. Agar diffusion method determine antibacterial activity umbellata. proximate composition showed that carbohydrate with 71.55±0.10 % had highest value. elemental analyzed Fe amount. phytochemical screening both aqueous ethanolic presence oxalate, phytate, tannins, flavonoids, saponins, alkaloids, phenols, cyanogenic glycoside anthraquinones. E. coli, S. pneumonia, pyogenes, aureus, Staphylococcus sp., P. aeruginosa, Micrococcus Klebsiella Proteus Bacillus epidermidis, Candida albicans, cerevisiae. zone inhibition comparison conventional antibiotics better properties. results obtained important H. ethnomedicine.
