Abstract | ||
This study was designed to evaluate the antibacterial activity of aqueous plant dyes extracted from Rubia tictorium l (roots)., Punica granatum l.( shell )And Mentha piperita l(leaves).against some pathogenic bacteria Streptococcus pneumonia , Bacillus subtilis, Proteus mirabilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa by using cup plate agar diffusion method . This test was applied on both solid media and cotton texture to make a comparison on the effect of antibacterial activity to whole extract. The results revealed that all dyes extract had the ability to inhibit the growth of tested bacteria on which Punica granatum showed a high inhibition zone at range (2.4-2.6 cm) on the solid media and a good microbial growth reduction on the cotton texture in a various ratio. | ||
