Evaluation of antimicrobial activity of leaf extract of Canarium Eodontophyllum Miq (Dabai) in Sarawak

Canarium odontophyllum which is also known as 'Dabai' is one of the popular underutilized fruits in Sarawak. This study was conducted to extract the leaf using methanol, ethanol and acetone as solvent by maceration method with the evaluation of antimicrobial activity using agar well diff...
