HPLC quantification of two isomeric triterpenic acids isolated from and antimicrobial activity on

Oleanolic (OA) and ursolic acids (UA) were isolated for the first time from the alcoholic extract of Mitracarpus scaber possessing antimicrobial effects on Dermatophilus congolensis. These two triterpenic acids were also active (MIC 15μg/ml) on this causative agent of dermatophilosis in African animals.
