Extracts of Synadenium glaucescens Pax are reported to contain biologically active compounds against bacterial and viral infections. This study aimed at isolating pure from its bioactive extracts as well evaluating their antibacterial efficacy. A phytochemical investigation the root stem barks involved total maceration in methanol (MeOH). The extract was then partitioned by Vacuum Liquid Chromatography (VLC) a solvent gradient system afford three fractions Hexane (Hex), Ethyl acetate (EtOAc)...
