Description
Abstract
This project looks at Synergistic assessment of the anti-bacterial activities of magnifera indica Telfairia occidentialis and Ocimum gratissimum. The phytochemical analysis and antibacterial activity of Mangifera indica (mango), Ocimum gratissimum (scent leaf) and Telfairia occidentalis extracts were carried out and it showed that the extracts had antibacterial effects on some drug-resistant bacteria. The antibacterial properties of Magnifera indica, O. gratissimum, and T. occidentalis was determined and tested against pure cultures of clinical isolates of Stphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterobacter aerogenes. The plants leaves were grounded separately into a powder. Similarly, an equal volume of the three plants were homogenized. The method used was the disk diffusion method to determine the antibacterial effects of both plant extract on the test organisms. Phytochemical analysis of O. gratissimum, m. indica and T. occidentalis revealed that it contains bioactive compounds which include: oxalate, phylate, tannins, saponins, flavonoid, cyanogenic glycosides, alkaloids, anthraquinone, steroid andphenol.
