Antibacterial Activity of Citrus Sinensis X against Pathogenic Bacterias

Citrus sinensis was tested for antibacterial activity against bacteria strains such as E.coli, pseudomonas aeruginosa, klebsiella pneumoniae, and staphylococcus aureus. The extraction was done with water and ethanol. Agar disc diffusion was used to test antibacterial activity in vitro method. On Escherichia coli, the antibacterial action of aqueous extract demonstrated a zone of inhibition. On the other organisms, it showed little or no zones of infection, although being seven millimeters in diameter. Inhibition with a diameter of 0 3mm. little inhibitory zones were also visible in the ethanol extract. On test organisms with diagram ranging from 1 3mm the inhibitory concentration that must be met MIC . Using a two flow serial dilution method, no zones of contamination were found in the ethanol and aqueous extract. The finding of this of this investigation indicated that the extract have limited promise for treating disorder induced by the organisms. E. Kaviya | Ela. Sendhuram | J.
