_bAlkaloid have been useful both in industry and medicine and that their extraction from various sources have been extensively known. However, some plant sources known to contain alkaloid are not yet being used, therefore, extractionof alkaloid from the fresh leaves and stems of tomato was made. The study focused on the extraction of alkaloid from the fresh leaves and stems of tomato, Lycopersicon esculentum (Fam. Solanaceae) using Soxhlet extraction apparatus and purification by distillation. The alkaloid was then tested for its efficacy on live cultures of fungus. Based on results, alkaloid is present in the fresh leaves and stem of tomato and was proven effective against dandruff (Tricophyton schloneii). The need for further studies on tomato alkaloid is recommended, dosage form be formulated, and extensive studies on its effectively studies on its effectivity as an anti-fungal.
