| Summary: | Antimicrobial activity of extracts from Enhalus sp., Cymodocea sp., Thalassia sp., and Halodule sp. were made using three different kinds of solvents, namely, ether, hexane, and methanol.Screening for antimicrobial activity of ether-, hexane, and methanol-derived extracts from Enhalus sp., Cymodocea sp., Thalassia sp., and Halodule sp. did not yield any positive result. The test organisms used were: three Gram positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, and Bacillus subtilis), five Gram negative bacteria (Escherichia coli, Shigella sp., Salmonella sp., Klebsiella sp., and Proteus mirabilis), and four Fungi (Candida albicans, Aspergillus sp., Geotrichum candidum, and Trichophyton sp.). |
