Antimicrobial Activity of Plant Leaf Extracts of Allium sativum and Allium cepa against Bacterial Strains

Abstract

The current examination was started to locate a successful antimicrobial activity against bacterial strain of plant leaf extracts of Allium sativum and Allium cepa. Mature plants of Allium sativum, Allium cepa, were used for this study. The results were examined based on the Evaluation of anti-microbial activity of various extracts of Allium sativum and Allium cepa. The MIC findings show that ethyl acetate and chloroform were the least fit. The plants even saw aqueous as the optimal extraction solvent. Similarly, except for Escherichia coli and Proteus vulgaris, chloroform extract showed MIC of less than 6.25μg / ml against Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa microorganisms that exhibit MIC of 12.5μg / ml or less but 6.25μg / ml. The results suggest that the best solvents for extraction in this investigation appeared based on the antimicrobial activity, methanol and ethanol, while ethyl acetate was less suitable. Aqueous and chloroform were both used as the safest solvents for the plants to remove.
