Preliminary Study On Antifungal Activity Of Neolamarckia Macrophylla Leaves Extract

The genus Neolamarckia includes two species which are N. macrophylla and N. cadamba. Many research have been done on various aspect of N. cadamba including the antimicrobial and the phytochemical compounds in the extract of different part of the tree (Qureshi et al., 2021; Islam et al., 2015). In co...
