The dried samples of bark, leaf, pod and twig of <em>B</em>. <em>cylindrica </em>were collected and were macerated with methanol. Crude extract of each parts was determined the phytochemical screening and antibacterial activity with the aquatic pathogenic bacteria, <em>Streptococcus</em> <em>agalactiae</em> SAAQ001, <em>Aeromonas</em> <em>hydrophila</em> AHAQ001, <em>Vibrio</em> <em>harveyi</em> VHAQ001 and <em>V</em>. <em>parahemolyticus</em> by hole-plate diffusion method<em>.</em> Most of the plant extracts showed a wide range of antibacterial activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. In addition, minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) were investigated. The results showed that the leaf and twig extracts of <em>B</em>. <em>cylindrica</em> had the lowest MIC/MBC to <em>S</em>. <em>agalactiae</em>. Phytochemical screening revealed that the<em> B</em>. <em>cylindrica</em> extracts contained a rich source of various phytochemical such as anthraquinone, terpenoids, flavonoids, saponins, phenolics and alkaloids. Terpenoid especially founded in leaf and twig supported antibacterial activity. The results presented here suggested that the presence of bioactive substances from <em>B</em>. <em>cylindrica</em> extracts was the factors responsible for bioactivity against the chosen bacterial pathogens. Also, <em>B</em>. <em>cylindrica</em> was a potential source of biologically active compounds that could be used to develop natural and bioactive pharmaceutical products against bacterial pathogens in aquatic animals.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Rajamangala University of Technology Srivijaya Research Journal}, author={Vittaya, Luksamee and Charoendat, Uton and Janyong, Sittichoke and Leesakul , Nararak}, year={2020}, month={Jul.}, pages={Wait} }
