Abstract:
<em>Cordia Africana</em> is considered as a good source of herbal medicine, food (fruit is edible), firewood and bee forage. The plant is used traditionally against stomach-ache, tooth-ache, wounds and cough. In this study <em>Cordia Africana</em> oil has been investigated by GC-MS analysis. Furthermore, the oil has been assessed for its antimicrobial activity. The GC-MS analysis revealed the presence of 27 components. Major constituents are: a) 9,12-octadecadienoic acid (Z,Z)-, methyl ester (37.02%) (b)-hexadecanoic acid, methyl ester (18.02%) (c)-methyl stearate (10.01%) (d)- docosanoic acid
