Now compounds inhibiting microorganism, such as benzoin and emotion have been isolated from plants may inhibit bacteria by a different mechanism than the presently used antibiotics and may have clinical value in treatment of resistant microbial strain. The present study shows the Antibacterial & antifungal activity ethanolic extract of leaf of C. intybus Linn was carried out by pour plate technique antibacterial activity of the extract was measured in terms of zone of inhibition. From antimicrobial study, the leaf has very good sensitivity against both gram+ve and gram-ve organisms and fungi. The highest % of zone of inhibition indicates that the leaf can be very well useful in candidiaisi.
