AB  - The chemical composition of banana (Musa
sapeintum and Musa cavandish) peel were studied. The
proximate analysis was found to be 89.63 and 86.43
moisture and 12.48 and 7.65 crude protein and 3.86 and
14.05 total lipid and 18.5 and 12.26 ash, 14.61 and 16.36
crude fiber, 50.55 and 49.23 total available carbohydrate
in peel of Musa sapientum and Musa cavandish.,
respectively. The ash contained (mg/100 g) 96.58 and
60.68 mg and 137.69 and 81.71 Na and 0.75 and 1.48 Zn
and 3.80 and 2.11 Fe and 102.25 and 43.12 Ca and
3804.73 and 2882.12 K in peel, respectively,
antimicrobial activity of Musa sapientum and Musa
cavandish were found to be the methanolic extract more
effective than all other extracts on bacteria and fungi.
Oppositethat in anti-cancer activity of Musa sapientum
and Musa cavandish were found to be the methanolic
extract not effective compare with all other extracts on
Hepatic cell cancer (HEP G2) and colonic cell cancer
(HCT). The phenolic compound contents (mg/100 g) were
determined of Musa sapeintum and Musa cavandish peel,
methanolic extract The results show the presence of
pyrogallol (31.98 and 63.98) catechein (21.55 and 16.33),
gallic (58 and 3.22), vanillic (2.94 and 4.46) ellagic (5.57
and 1.48), protocatchoic (1.22 and 3.09) and catechein
(21.55 and 16.32), e-vanilic (19.6 and 7.23) salycilic
(25.53 and 1.13), respectively.
