Abstract

Ethanolic extract of three medicinal plants namely Ocimumtenniflorum,CentellaasiaticaandEuphorbia hirtawere evaluated fortheirtherapeutic potential as antimicrobial agent against sixstandard organisms three bacteria and threefungi,using paper disc method. The antimicrobial effectiveness of callus cultures of E. hirtawithinhibition zone of 18 mm was found highest against C.gramineum and in O.tenniflorumwith inhibition zone of 28 mm was found highest against K. pneumonia.On the Contrary, in in vivo analysis of antimicrobial efficacy of O.tenniflorumwith an inhibition zone of 16 mm was found to the highest against P. chrysogenum andE. hirtawith an inhibition zone of 24 mm was found to the highest against K. pneumonia.
