| Abstract | ||
| This study has been done in order to evaluate the antibacterial activity of six different concentrations of fatty acids were extracted from Myristica fragrans (FAN) against five different G-ve bacterial isolates from pathological cases was studied, agar well diffusion method was used to determine this activity and the zone of inhibition in millimeters was the criterion, results showed inactivity of concentrations (10, 20, 40, and 60%) in comparison to partial activity in using of (80 and 100)% of FAN against all bacterial isolates except P. aeroginosa. which their results showed inactivity of 10% FAN against its’ growth, in comparison to 20%, 40% and 60% whose appeared to inhibit the growth of P. aeroginosa actively, this impact was gradually progressed to be very active in using of 80% and 100% of FAN against the same bacteria | ||
