Abstract

An aquous hot , cold and hot ethanolic extracts fraction for Lycium species have
been prepared. Qualitative tests have been carried out for detection of their general
chemical composition ,and UV-Visible spectra were also obtained .The antibacterial
activity of the extracts was tested by the well diffusion method .Human blood cells
were used to determine cytotoxicity for the extracts in concentration 500 mg/ml . No
cytotoxic effects were observed by this concentration,and this is considered the first
step in the work positively and in the continuity of testing the extracts on human by
pharmacy and medicine colleges.
