The aim of this study seeks to investigate the phytochemical analysis, antibacterial and antifungal activity of petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and ethanol extracts in stem bark of Pithecellobium jiringa (P. jiringa).

The study was investigated antibacterial and antifungal activity of P. jiringa stem bark.
