Evaluation Of Antibacterial Activity Of Medicated Soaps On Clinical Isolates
ABSTRACT
Evaluation of antibacterial
activity of medicated soaps on Staphylococcus aureus, E.coli and Salmonella
typhi was carried out using different concentrations of medicated soaps
(IOOmg/ml, 200mg/ml, 300mg/ml, and 400mg/ml). The disc dillusion method was
used lo obtain the zone of inhibition at different concentration of the soap on
the test organisms. The highest ' zone of inhibition obtained was crusader with
the zone of inhibition 21111111 on Staphylococcus aureus. This result shows
that medicated soaps exhibits antibacterial activities against 3 ~
Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Sa/111011el/a typhi. Therefore,
medicated soaps are ; i recommended for washing hands, bathing and cleaning to
reduce microbial contamination.
