摘要：AbstractIn a pharmacological screening methanol, ethanol and chloroform extracts ofDipcadi viride(L.) Moench, were assayed for antibacterial and antifungal activities. Pathogenic bacteria and fugai were used as test strain to validate their anti-microbial potential. Disc diffusion and agar tube dilution methods were used to assess antibacterial and antifungal activities, respectively. Crude plant extracts exhibited inhibitory effect against maximum of pathogenic microbes. Ethanol and methanol proved better solvents compared with the chloroform. Results of crude plant extracts and standard antibiotic doxycycline (DOX) showed comparable effect against pathogenic bacteria and fungi (A. niger, 124 mm; A. fumigates, 109 mm). Results of the current study were interesting as inhibition zones were observed even, when extracts were used in lower concentrations. There should be detailed pharmacological screening of the crude extracts of this plant for exploration of effective and natural drug.
