This inflammation results in the diarrhea and even dysentery that are the hallmarks of Shigella infection. The aims of our research were analysis of the secondary metabolite products and evaluation antifungal activity. Forty bioactive compounds were identified in the methanolic extract of Shegilla dysenteriae. GC-MS analysis of Shegilla dysenteriae revealed the existe Less
