Author(s): R. A sharma, S. C Jain, R Jain, C Mittal

Various plant parts of Cassia italica and C. siamea were successively extracted in petroleum ether, benzene, chloroform, alcohol and water. Similarly, the callus cultures of C. italica were also extracted in alcohol only. All these extracts and reference antibiotics (gentamycin/mycostatin) were screened against the select bacteria and fungi, and resultant inhibition zone (s) and activity index of crude drugs were measured.
