Antibacterial activity of flesh and peel methanol fractions of red pitaya, white pitaya and papaya on selected food microorganisms

Red pitaya is good source of antioxidants, minerals and vitamins associated with promoting health and reducing the risk for chronic diseases. Based on ethno pharmacological and taxonomic information, antibacterial activities of methanol fractions of peel and flesh of red pitaya, white pitaya and pap...
