Abstract: Tinospora cordifolia Miers. is a large, glabrous, deciduous climbing shrub belonging to the family Menispermaceae. The qualitative phytochemical screening of the stems of Tinospora cordifolia Miers. was determined by using standard methods. The stems of Tinospora cordifolia Miers. revealed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, phenolic compounds, saponins, tannins, glycosides and carbohydrates, and showed the absence of steroids and reducing sugars. The quantitative crude alkaloid was extracted from the stems of Tinospora cordifolia Miers. by using Harbone J.B. Method. The percentage yield of the crude alkaloid was found to be 2.008%. And the antimicrobial activities of crude alkaloid extracts in various solvent systems were tested by using agar well diffusion method on six selected organisms, such as Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus pumilus, Candida albicans and Escherichia coli.
