Antimicrobial Activity Of Aloe Vera On Clinical Isolates
ABSTRACT
The crude extracts of Aloe vera gel and lef
were assayed in vitro with the aim of determining and evaluating its
antimicrobial activity on the selected lest organisn1s. Etlimml ·und hol waler
(aqueous) were used as solvents for extraction. 'The test organisms used Were
Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Streptococcus pyogenes,
Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans. The ethanol extracts had higher
inhibitions on all the test organisms and gave better minimum inhibitory
concentrations than the aqueous extracts. The dry gel had high inhibitions on
all the test organisms than the fresh gel and green leaf; inhibitions were
higher in Gram negative organisms, followed by gram positive organism and then
fungi. The study revealed that . Aloe vera plant extracts was susceptible to
all the test organisms. This result supports the ethnomedicinal use of Aloe
vera for the treatment of various ailments.
