Background: Plants have many phytochemicals with various bioactivities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anticancer.

Studies have shown that extracts from natural products, such as fruits, have positive effects against cancer, compared with chemotherapy or recent hormonal therapy.

The A.nilotica can provide nutrients and therapeutic ingredients to preclude, mitigate or treat many diseases or conditions.

The Aim: This study aimed to analyze phytochemicals of the extracts of fruits of A.nilotica collected from majdool town.

Material and Methods: These fruits were powdered and extracted with different solvents as methanol, chloroform, petroleum ether and water.

Then, all the fruits extracts were analyzed quantatively looking for their phytochemicals constituents whether primary or secondary metabolites.

Results: These experiment’s results showed that the A.Nilotica fruits extracts have several different phytochemicals among which phenols, Alkaloids, Flavonoids, Tannins, Terpinoids, Cardiac glycosides, saponins and resins, and secondary metabolites and other primary phytochemicals that may have bioactivities.

The methanol and the aqueous medium are more efficient in extracting secondary phytochemicals than the other solvents.

Conclusion: Overall, these results reveal that the A.Nilotica fruits may have medical therapeutic values due to the types of phytochemicals detected.
