Antimicrobial activity of consecutive extracts of etlingera brevilabrum

Disc diffusion (DD), minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) assays were used to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of 21 consecutive extracts of different aerial parts of Etlingera brevilabrum against 18 microorganisms that included six Gram-positive [(+...

The highest activity in MIC was shown by the methanol-water (1:1) and water extracts on Gram-negative Aeromonas hydrophila (1.56 mg/mL: leaf water extract) and V. paraehaemolyticus (1.56 mg/mL: methanol-water and water extracts of stolons and leaves and stem water extract).
