Abstract

The current paper is focused on screening of antibacterial activity of extractsof the leaves of P. zeylanica. Initially the plant leaves were collected, dried and extracted with the solventsn-Hexane, ethylacetate, chloroform, ethanol, methanol and water. Further, the crude extracts were studied for theirantibacterial potentiality on nine different bacteria. Among them methanol extract was found to possess
highest MIC of 1.25mg/mL on bacteria Salmonella Entericatyphimurium, Vibrio Cholerae and AcinetobacterBaumannii.
