Abstract
The paper deals the chemical composition of guar (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba) seeds. The antibacterial activities of the guar seeds crude extract were determined against Mycoplasma bovis and Mycoplasma gallisepticum. The chemical constituents were determined by quantifying ash, fat, fibers, moisture, protein and minerals. The results showed that the seeds contained 4.53% ash, 3.32 % fat, 11.06% fiber, 10.0% moisture and 33.25% protein. The most abundant minerals and fatty acids detected in guar seeds were iron (465 ppm) and cis-linoleic acid (53.89%), respectively. Essential and non-essential amino acids were present in guar seeds
