Abstract:
The air-dried leaf of Terminalia cattapa Linn. was pulverized and macerated with 95% ethanol for 48
hours. The mixture was filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The ethanol extract of the plant was
analyzed for their phytochemical components and antimicrobial activity. Further, an ointment
prepared from fresh leaf of the plant was tested on its healing effect in treating imple. Results of
phytochemical analyses of the ethanol extract of the plant shows the presence of tannins, phenols,
flavonoids and saponin. For the antimicrobial analyses, result shows that the ethanol extract of the
plant is more effective in eliminating the growth of Staphylococcus aureus compared to the standard
Cotrimoxazole. Results further shows that the ethanol extract of the plant has parallel effect on
eliminating the growth of Escherichia coli bacteria compared with the standard Ampicillin. For the
effect of Terminali catappa Linn. ointment, result shows that the ointment is moderately effective in healing pimple.
