| Summary: | Moringa is said to contain antimicrobial properties but only few studies of the antibacterial activities on the pod of this plant. The study is aim to evaluate the antibacterial activity of Moringa oleifera by its pod and to compare the effect of different solvents use for extraction of Moringa oleifera pod through the antibacterial test. To study the antimicrobial properties of this plant by its pod, the antibacterial test through Kurby-bauer or disc diffusion method was carried out with different concentration of thc plant extract. The result of the study shows that methanol have a very good result of diameter of the inhibition zone. As a result, the pod of Moringa oleifera does exhibit antimicrobial activity at some concentration. The best solvent used for the extraction of Moringa oleifera is methanol. |
