Synergism between antibiotics and the extract of selected prophetic medicine toward different types of bacteria

It is important to find new ways that are effective for the treatment of infectious diseases caused by drug-resistant bacteria such as the usage of plant extracts which have the antibacterial activity together with antibiotics which do provide synergistic effect. The objectives of this study are to...
