Phytochemical screening and antibacterial activity of Baccaurea lanceolata Muell against diarrheagenic bacteria / Caroline Ngau
Baccaurea lanceolata Muell is one of the natural edible plants that grow wild in tropical forests especially in Asean countries. Natural plant has become an alternative for drugs and medicine development. This study was carried out to detect the presence of phytochemical components and to evaluate t...
