Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
The crude extract of Colliandra surinamensis is used in traditional medicine for the treatment of some diseases/infections. The crude extract obtained from the flower of Colliandra surinamensis was found to have antimicrobial activity against some Gram positive organisms such as Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis and Steptococcus species. The performance of the extract against the bacteria isolates was favorably comparable with established commercial antibacterial agents. |
