Antimicrobial effect of Callus and Natural plant extracts of Premna serratifolia L
Journal Title: International Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biological Research - Year 2011, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Premna serratifolia L. is an important medicinal shrub used in traditional system of medicines as cardio tonic, antibiotic, anti-coagulant, carminative, hepatoprotective, anti tumor etc. The present study aims in the evaluation of antimicrobial activity against the selected human pathogens (Bacillus sp, Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Non-haemolytic Streptococci, Streptococcus epidermidis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhimurium) by using natural leaves, roots and its respective calli induced with help of various plant growth regulators. Result revealed that, increased inhibitory activities of callus extracts were found to be the best when compared to the natural plant material extracts. The study suggests the plant Premna serratifolia L. is an potent source for phytomedicine development in future.
