Abstract
This study included isolation of some active materials from Cordial myxia fruits such as tannins, saponins and volatile oils with percentage of (69.2%),(23.1%), and (7.7%) respectively. Also the study included the determination of minerals in Cordia myxia fruit such as "P, Na, Ca and Mg" using atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The concentrations of these minerals were (100ppm),(80ppm),(25ppm) and )95ppm) respectively.The anti-bacterial activity study was performed for the active materials isolated from cordial myxia fruits against two genus of pathogenic becteria, pseclomenas and klebasilla by using agar-well diffusion method. It appeared from this study that all of the isolate active material have inhibitory effect on bacteria was used.
The inhibition zone diameter varies with the type of active compound, its concentration and the genus of bacteria
