Screening of Antibacterial and Antioxidant Activity of Anisomeles Indica
Preeti Dixit, Dr. A. K. Sharma
Abstract: The antibacterial and antioxidant effect of leaves of Anisomeles indica was tested against various pathogenic bacteria-E. coli; Proteus vulgaris; Klebsiella pneumonia and pseudomonas aeruginosa using Agar diffusion method. The aqueous; methanolic; ethanolic; Chloroform and ethyl acetate extract of the leaves of A. indica were tested against these micro-organisms for their microbial activity as well as antioxidant activity was identified by DPPH Method. This plant is showing antibacterial and antioxidant activity ; both. Methanolic extract of Anisomeles indica shows the better scavenging than aqueous extract.
