Abstract: The present study was designated to evaluate the antibacterial activities of Ethanolic, Methanolic, Ethyl acetate and Hot water extract from leaves, fruits and peels of Aegle marmelos. Compare to all parts, the fruits were showing best result. The antibacterial activities of the extracts against bacteria were tested by agar well diffusion assay and the MIC values were determined by broth dilution assay. The methanolic and hot water extracts showed least antibacterial activity as compared to ethanolic and ethyl acetate extracts. The MIC values were obtained 1.98 mg/ml in ethanolic and ethyl acetate extract of fruits against S. aureus and 11.90mg/ml in methanolic extract against P. aeruginosa. The antibacterial compound mainly found in Aegle marmelos were tannins, phlobatannins, saponins, terpenoids, alkaloids and poly phenols.
Keywords: Antibacterial properties, ethanolic and methanolic plant extract, MIC, zone of inhibition. |
