Abstract In this work, the ethyl acetate extract of chemically analyzed by HPLC and Gas chromatography coupled to a mass spectrometry (GC/MS), and their antimicrobial activity was tested against seven microorganisms using the well diffusion method. In vitro DPPH assays, conducted on the extract demonstrate its ability to act as an antioxidant. HPLC analysis is revealed three major peaks. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry results revealed presence of 5 phytoconstituents showed in ethyl acetate extract. In vitro antioxidant activities of ethyl acetate fraction were showed significant antioxidant and comparable with the standard ascorbic acid. Results of this study show that the leaves of C. amada are the rich source of antimicrobial compounds that can play an important role in preventing the progression of many diseases.
