Abstract
detecting the phytochemicals and evaluating comparative antimicrobial activities of Ziziphusjujuba, and Z. Nummulariafruits extract known for their medicinal properties in folk medicine. The comparative assessment of antifungal activity was performed in terms of percentage of radial on solid medium (potatoes dextrose agar PDA) against Aspergillus flavus, M.gypseum, T. flavurus clem and Penicillium expansum. The antibacterial effect was studied by the agar direct contact method using Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa B.cereus, B.pumilus, M. luteus and Escherichia col strains. The results revealed that the methanolic extract and the acetonic extract exhibited significant antimicrobial activity of concentration of 100-500 µg/ml against tested organisms respectively.
