چکیده
|
The antimicrobial activity of leaves and bark extracts of firmiana simplex (l.) w. f. wight was evaluated by using zone of inhibition and mic assay. it is revealed from the results that plant showed tremendous antibacterial and antifungal potential. the most significant results were obtained from petroleum ether extracts of leaves against pseudomonas aeruginosa (78 ± 1.1 mm) and aspergillus niger (66 ± 0.2 mm). the leaves and bark extracts have produced significant results against klebsiella pneumoniae within the range of 0 ± 0 to 67 ± 1.5 mm. it is revealed that extracts macerated in water have failed to exhibit any potential against all test organisms employed. the lowest (significant) mic value of bark extract was 0.023 ± 0.04 at 0.7 mg/ml and leaf extract was 0.030 ± 0.02 at 0.9 mg/ml.
