The purpose of the study was to evaluate the phytochemical manifestations and antimicrobial efficacy of Matricaria chamomilla (L.) belonging to the family- Asteraceae. The first step was aimed at studying the effect of different extraction solvents (water, chloroform and methanol). In the second phase of our study, the antimicrobial activity of the extracts was cut into six microbial subspecies such as Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus thuringiensis, Escherichia coli and Fusarium sp. According to disc distribution method, blocking areas from 7 to 15 mm are provided. Therefore, the release had a moderate blocking function and they respond well to at least one microbial species tested other than the fungal flora. However, the methanolic extract of M. chamomilla reveals potent activity against Pseudomonas sp. with a limited block 22.5 mm.
