The present study was aimed at the development of topical gel of extract of Mangifera indica L. seed kernel and evaluation of its in vitro antibacterial activity. Various extracts using different solvents were prepared and evaluated for in vitro activity against Propionibacterium acnes. Ethanolic extract of M. indica L. seed kernel exhibited the highest in vitro antimicrobial activity and was considered further. Topical gels of this ethanolic extract were prepared using different polymers such as Carbopol 974P, Xanatural 180 and Methocel K15M in varying concentrations. The topical gel of 10 % w/w ethanolic extract of M. indica L. seed kernel with 2% w/w Carbopol 974P was uniform and yellowish transparent with satisfactory spreadability. The developed gel showed greater in vitro antimicrobial activity as compared to marketed herbal cream. These results indicate the potential of topical gel of ethanolic extract M. indica L. seed kernel as anti-acne formulation developed from plant waste product.
