ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY OF CRUDE EXTRACTS OF THE ROOT OF Strychnos nux-vomica AND Cassia angustifolia AGAINST SELECTED BACTERIAL PATHOGENS | PLANT CELL BIOTECHNOLOGY AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY

 The aim of the study was to examine the antibacterial property of two selected medicinal plant extracts against various pathogens. The microorganisms were confined from drinking water (Bacillus sp., Borchothrix sp., Clavibacter sp, Anguslobacter sp, and Brevibacterium sp.). Indian therapeutic plants Strychnos nuxvomica and Cassia angustifolia were chosen for antibacterial examinations. The solvents utilized for the extraction of plant roots were n-butanol, ethyl acetate and water. The in vitro antibacterial activity was performed by agar well dispersion technique. The most susceptible was Bacillus sp, Brevibacterium sp., and the most resistance was Borchothrix sp., Clavibacter sp., and Ancylobacter sp. The standard drugs used were penicillin, Streptomycin and Ampicillin. The outcomes acquired in the present examination propose that the two plants could be utilized in treating bacterial infections.
