Abstract

Acne is a common disorder of Pilosebaceous follicle which mainly affects the teenager's upto 95 % boys and 83 % girls due to hormonal changes. In the present study Auto urine (patient's self urine) was tested for their antibacterial activity. 100 % Auto urine exhibited the best antibacterial activity toward Propionibacterium acnes with inhibition zone of 19.66 ± 0.578 mm in radius. 50 % concentration of Auto urine also effective against Propionibacterium acnes with inhibition zone 14.37 ± 0.351 mm in radius and 25 % concentration also exhibit anti-bacterial activity toward Propionibacterium acnes with inhibition radius 10.03 ± 0.252 in nutrient agar media. While in blood agar media, 100 % Auto urine exhibited best antibacterial activity with the inhibition zone 20.16 · ± 0.352 mm in radius, 5O % concentration exhibited inhibition zone of size 16.3 ± 0.458 mm in radius and 25 % concentration exhibited inhibition zone of size 10.93 ± 0.404 mm in radius.
