The excess use of antimicrobial agents in the poultry industry is a significant reason for the gradual spread and increasing level of multidrug resistance bacteria. This article is based on a study in which the antibacterial activity of aqueous, methanolic, ethanolic and acetonic extracts of eight medicinal plants were evaluated by standard disc diffusion method against multidrug resistant Escherichia coli and Salmonella spp. isolated from broiler meat. The multidrug resistance was checked by commercially available antibiotics using standard disc diffusion method. The results have indicated that the ethanolic extract of Boerhaavia diffusa showed maximum zone of inhibition against Escherichia coli, while Asparagus racemosus showed maximum zone of inhibition against Salmonella spp. Other experimental plant extracts had showed moderate activity against these multidrug-resistant bacteria, which can also be considered as potential source of active beneficial phytochemicals. Proper management and application of these plant extracts may be a wonderful alternative of commercially available antibiotic to minimize the risk.

Yagya (known as a fire-ritual) is an ancient Vedic Indian method of herbal inhalation therapy. It is also described as an excellent mode of environmental purification. Here, a comparative study of antimicrobial activity of smoke extract of Yagya and non-Yagya has been performed. ‘Yagya’ in this text, refers to the burning of wood, specific types of dried medicinal plant materials (hawan samagri) along with ghee with the citation of mantras, whereas the term Non-Yagya implies burning of wood, hawan samagri, along with ghee. In non-Yagya the mantra citation has not been done. An apparatus was designed to simulate the burning process, and the smoke fraction was captured for antimicrobial activity on human pathogens i.e Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis, and Salmonella typh. Antimicrobial activity was performed using disc diffusion method. Antimicrobial data revealed that the ‘smoke-extract’ obtained from Yagya experiments with mantra chanting had higher zone of inhibition values compared to that of same experiment conditions except presence of mantra chanting suggesting an important role of the mantra chanting in Yagya for medicinal applications

Paspalum conjugatum has been known to have phytochemicals that kill microorganisms. This experimental research determined the antimicrobial efficacy of Paspalum conjugatum against Staphylococcus aureus.   Methods: Samples of the carabao grass was purchased, washed and then dried. An extract was obtained from the sample. The extract was then sent to an accredited testing center for phytochemical test to identify the different components of the plant extract. The antimicrobial activity of the paspalum conjugatum extract was then determined through the use of the disc diffusion method. The zone of inhibition of Paspalum Conjugatum was also compared to a control standard such as oxacillin.   Results: The results of the study revealed to have abundant constituents of sterols, flavonoids and tannins; moderate levels of triterpenes, saponins and glycosides; and traces of alkaloids. The antimicrobial testing showed results that Paspalum Conjugatum had 10mm zone of inhibition which means that it has a complete inhibitory activity with severe reactivity against the tested organism, staphylococcus aureus.   Discussion: The study concludes that Paspalum conjugatum can be used to eliminate staphylococcus aureus. It is recommended that further studies be conducted for the use of Paspalum conjugatum in the treatment and prevention of diseases caused by staphylococcus aureus. Keywords:  paspalum conjugatum, carabao grass, staphylococcus aureus
