ABSTRACTObjective: The present study was to evaluate the in vitro antibacterial activity, and thin-layer chromatography (TLC) studies from the petals of fourdifferent Indian medicinal plants (Punica granatum, Hibiscus rosa-sinensis, Cassia auriculata, and Moringa oleifera).Methods: The phytochemical screening of the methanol extract of petals of four different Indian medicinal plants was performed using standardprocedures. The antimicrobial activity was tested against various test organisms using the agar disc diffusion method.Results: The preliminary phytochemical screening for petals of four different medicinal plants revealed the presence of flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins,and saponins. From the above study, the results indicated that the methanol extract of M. oleifera petals showed the highest antimicrobial activityagainst Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis with zone of inhibition 17.93 and 23.40, respectively, at the concentration of 20 µl/ml and alsoshowed the maximum inhibitory activity at the highest concentration (20 µl/ml) than the lowest concentration (5 µl/ml) against Gram-negativebacteria such as Escherichia coli, Proteus vulgaris, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Gram-positive B. subtilis and S. aureus. TLC studies of methanolextracts of petals of Indian medicinal plants revealed the presence of different phytoconstituents as evidenced by separated compounds with differentRf values.Conclusion: The results obtained in the present study indicate that the petals of four different Indian medicinal plants showed the highest antibacterialactivity and can be used as an antibacterial agent against bacterial diseases.Keywords: Phytochemicals, Antibacterial activity, Thin-layer chromatography.

ABSTRACT One of the potential medicinal plants as traditional medicine is gardenia plant (Gardenia augusta). Gardenia leaf extract contains alkaloid compounds, flavonoids, tannins, saponins and triterpenoids, which are known to have antibacterial abilities..The aim of this research was to determine the antibacterial activity of gardenia leaf extract on the growth of Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Salmonella thypi. The examination on the inhibitory power using the Kirby-Bauer method. The Kirby-Bauer method is referring to the diffusion method using paper disc with five treatments, namely the extract of gardenia leaves with a substance concentration of 20%, 40%, and 60% as well positive control (Ciprofloxacin) and negative control (aquades). Based on the research results obtained, it can be concluded that gardenia leaf extract can inhibit growth of Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Salmonella thypi at a concentration of 20%, 40% and 60% and classified as strong and medium category.

Daun kacapiring mengandung senyawa alkaloid, flavonoid, tanin, saponin dan triterpenoid, yang berpotensi sebagai antibakteri sehingga digunakan dalam penelitian ini.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui aktivitas antibakteri ekstrak daun kacapiring terhadap pertumbuhan Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli dan Salmonella thypi. Pengujian daya hambat menggunakan metode Kirby-Bauer, yaitu metode difusi dengan cakram kertas dengan 5 perlakuan yaitu ekstrak daun kacapiring dengan konsentrasi 20%, 40%, dan 60% serta kontrol positif (ciprofloxacin) dan kontrol negatif (akuades). Berdasarkan hasil penelitian yang diperoleh, dapat disimpulkan bahwa ekstrak daun kacapiring dapat menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli dan Salmonella thypi pada konsentrasi 20%, 40% dan 60% dan tergolong dalam kategori kuat dan sedang.

Abstract Background Patients with lymphoedema are at high risk of getting bacterial and fungal wound infections leading to acute inflammatory episodes associated with cellulitis and erysipelas. In Ethiopia, wound infections are traditionally treated with medicinal plants. Methods Agar well diffusion and colorimetric microdilution methods were used to determine the antibacterial activity of methanol extracts of the three medicinal plants against Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Shewanella alage, methicillin-resistant S. aureus ATCC®43300TM, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC25923, Escherichia coli ATCC25922, Klebsiella pneumoniae ATCC700603, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC37853. Results The methanol extract of L. inermis leaves showed high activity against all tested bacterial species, which was comparable to the standard drugs. Similarly, the extracts of A. indica showed activity against all tested species though at higher concentrations, and higher activity was recorded against Streptococcus pyogenes isolates at all concentrations. However, the extract of A. aspera showed the lowest activity against all tested species except Streptococcus pyogenes isolates. The lowest minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was recorded with the extract of L. inermis against E. coli isolate and S. aureus ATCC 25923. Conclusion Methanol extracts of L. inermis, A. indica, and A. aspera leaves exhibited antimicrobial activity against selected bacterial isolates involved in wound infections, of which the methanol extracts of L. inermis exhibited the highest activity. The results of the present study support the traditional use of plants against microbial infections, which could potentially be exploited for the treatment of wound infections associated with lymphoedema.
