Antimicrobial activity of methanolic extract from various pyrrosia species / Nurul Akma Harun

The main purpose of this research is to determine the antimicrobial activity of leaves from Pyrrosia lanceolata, Pyrrosia piloselloides and Pyrrosia nummuralifolia methanolic extract. Beside that, this research is also to investigate the microorganisms that are inhibited by these plant extracts. Pyr...
