IN VITRO ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY OF ASTERACEOUS PLANTS AGAINST TEST PATHOGEN Shigella AND Klebsiella spp.

Journal Title: Indian Journal of Scientific Research - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 2

Abstract

Hydroethanolic extract of different locally available plants of Asteraceous plants were evaluated for their antibacterial activity against the test pathogen Shigella and Klebsiella spp.. The whole plant extract of Tridax procumbens Linn. exhibited maximum antibacterial activity forming an inhibition zone 25.0 mm.& 16.0mm.diameter against test pathogen Shigella and Klebsiella spp. respectively. Other sample showed less or no inhibition zone. The result indicate that the whole plant of Tridax procumbens Linn. can be exploited as good sources of innocuous bactericide.
