## 4 Conclusions  
Based on our current results, it can be concluded that the ethyl acetate and acetone extracts obtained from dried fruits of _C. axillaris_ exhibited noteworthy antibacterial and antioxidant properties. These extracts also contained a considerable amount of phenolic and flavonoid compounds. Additionally, the aqueous extract was found to have significant carbohydrate content, suggesting its potential as a nutritional source.In vitro study indi \begin{table}

Table 8: Results depicting the MIC and MBC values shown by ethyl acetate, acetone, methanol, and water extracts of _C. axillaris_ extract against eight different pathogenic bacteria. cated that the acetone and methanol extracts of _C. axillaris_ dried fruit may be effective in reducing uric acid synthesis by inhibiting the xanthine oxidase enzyme, thereby potentially serving as a treatment option for gout. The presence of polyphenols, terpenoids, and flavonoids in the extracts can be attributed to the observed biological activities. Considering our findings, we propose the utilization of _C. axillaris_ dried fruit extract as a means to inhibit the growth of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The notable antibacterial efficacy against a range of pathogenic bacteria suggests that this extract holds significant potential in combating various severe infections, including endocarditis, urinary tract infections, pneumonia, dental issues, septicemia, dysentery, otitis, diarrhea, meningitis, and others. However, it is crucial to conduct further comprehensive research using animal models and gain a deeper understanding of the antibacterial mechanism of action in order to validate the traditional use of this plant. Such efforts will contribute to the ongoing research endeavors focused on exploring antibacterial medications derived from medicinal plants, with the ultimate goals of promoting health, ensuring human safety, protection, and advancing scientific knowledge in the field. Furthermore, it is highly recommended to conduct thorough investigations on the dried fruits of _C. axillaris_ using animal models and molecular-level studies to examine its pharmacological activities and identification of bioactive compounds.
