Abstract

Natural products are known as raw chemicals that are available in many medicinal plants and characterized as alternatives to medicines and have medicinal and biological applications as anti-bacterial and anti-fungal, antioxidant, immune system boosting, anti-inflammatory and UV-protective effects. Alkaloid and flavonoid fractions wereextracted fromMarodphali (Helicteresisora) plant and tested for their antioxidant and antimicrobial activity. Antioxidant activity for fractions were determined with β- carotene assay andthe flavonoid compound showed the highest antioxidant activity compared to thestandard BHT.The results of antimicrobial activity of extracts on microbial species (E. coli, P. aeuroginosa, S.aurea  ,K. pneumoniae  and Aspergillus flavus ) exhibited the flavonoid  have  a good activity  compared to alkaloid extract.
