The stem bark of Dracaena manni Baker was extracted with light petroleum (40–60° C), chloroform and ethanol successively. The solids from both the light petroleum and ethanol fraction showed antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus. Palmitic acid, an unidentified gummy material and heptacosane were found in the petroleum ether fraction whilst the ethanolic fraction consisted mainly of ammonium nitrate.
