In Vitro Antibacterial Evaluation Of Some Oral Herbal Preparations On Selected Enteric Bacterial Species:- Onyike, Kalu P

ABSTRACT The aim of this present study was to determine the antibacterial evaluation of some oral herbal preparation on some enteric bacteria, using standard microbiological and analytical methods. The test organisms used were Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella species and Enterobacter species. They were identified using colonial morphologies, Gram staining, motility and biochemical tests. From the result it was observed that cure and kill more effective on Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli followed by Klebsiellapneumonia The MICs ofGoko cleanser on Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumonia, Escherichia coli and Enterobacter were 40%, 20%, 10% and 10% respectively. The MICs of cure and kill herb on Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumonia, Escherichia coli and Enterobacter were 40%, 20%, 20% and 10% respectively. The MICs of A Herb on Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumonia, Escherichia coli and Enterobacter were 10%, 10% , 20% and 10% respectively. The MICs of B Herb Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiellapneumonia, Escherichia coli and Enterobacter were 20%, 10%, 20% and 10% respectively
