Every part of Brugmansia suaveolens is poisonous as well as exhibit curative activity against several ailments like headache, reduce inflammatory swellings of joints in rheumatic attacks etc. In the present study, the bioactive compounds present in the flower of Brugmansia suaveolens were investigated for antimicrobial activity against some pathogenic bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli) and fungus(Penicillium atramentosum).dried flower samples were used to obtain various extracts viz.Chloroform, Acetone,Ethanol, and water. The phytochemical analyses showed the presence of phenol, steroids, saponins, Tannins flavonoids glycosides terpenoids alkaloids phlabatannins extracts used in this study.under the well diffusion method had a considerable antimicrobial activities increased with higher concentration. The Ethanol extract from dry flower Brugmansia suaveolens shows more effective against Escherichia coli, The Chloroform extract from dry flower Brugmansia suaveolens shows more effective against Staphylococcus aureus. In case of fungi Chloroform extract from dry flower Brugmansia suaveolens showed the highest inhibition zone against Penicillium atramentosum.
