Antibacterial activities of Musa Acuminate L. peel

N-hexane, chloroform and water extracts of (Musa acuminate L.) green and ripe banana peel were evaluated for antibacterial activity. A total of 4 bacterial strains (Salmonella typhimurium, Shigella flexneri, Bacillus subtilis, Enterrococcus faecalis) were selected and antibacterial efficiency of cru...

A total of 4 bacterial strains (Salmonella typhimurium, Shigella flexneri, Bacillus subtilis, Enterrococcus faecalis) were selected and antibacterial efficiency of crude extracts were assessed by well diffusion test via measuring inhibition zones formed in agar plate at three different dosages (100mg/ml, 200mg/ml and 500mg/ml).
