ABSTRACT

Background: Natural compounds from medicinal plants have received much attention and research as resources in developing of new drugs. The challenge of for developing antibacterial agent from natural products for the treatment of MERSA, fungal and viral disease.Materials and methods: This study analyzed the chemical composition of Artemisia judaica and Juniperus procera methanol extracts and three essential oils include lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus), clove (Syzygium aromaticum (L.) merr and perry) and tea tree (Melaleuca alternifolia).Results: The obtained results revealed the presence of bioactive functional molecules that exert several biological properties like antibacterial, anti-proliferative and anti-inflammatory activities such as caryophyllene, eugenol, palmitic acid and limonene.Conclusion: It was concluded that, it is promising in development of a novel plant-based drugs for MERSA, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities for mangment of different pathological conditions
