In recent years, multiple drug resistance in both human and plant pathogens has been developed due to indiscriminate use of synthetic drugs especially in developing countries .thus, a diverse arsenal of new antibacterial agents is urgently needed to combat the diminishing efficacy of existing antibiotics. Terminalia arjuna is a tree of combretaceae family .the plant parts extracts in 70% methanol were tested against multidrug resistance strain E coli and S. aureus. arjunic acid arjungenin are some compounds of Terminalia arjuna are reported as antimicrobial compounds .100% concentration extract of Terminalia arjuna show the strong inhibition zones against S aureus i.e. 7mm,9mm,7mm,by leaves , bark and fruits extract respectively

Terminalia arjuna, antimicrobial, zone of inhibition. Methanol
