Phytochemical and antibacterial characterization of five weed species presents at the province of Matanzas, Cuba
The objective of the present work was to determine the phytochemical and antibacterial characteristics of leaf extracts of five weed species located in Coliseo, province of Matanzas, Cuba. The collected leaves were washed, dried at 45 °C, then powdered. The extractions were carried out i...

The presence of several secondary metabolites classes was determined and it was quantified the content of total soluble carbohydrates and proteins, reducing sugar and total polyphenols.

Simple ANOVA and Tukey ́s Multiple Range Test were used for comparison among the media of the treatments (extracts).
