Comparative Anti-microbial Activity of Different Extracts of Different Parts of Butea monosperma

Plants have served as a source of therapeutic therapies for millennia, and phytotherapy continues to play a crucial role in the primary health care of around 80% of the world's impoverished and developing nations. This study examined the antibacterial activity of Butea monosperma against B. subtilis, S. aureus, S. typhi, L. acidophilus, and E. coli. All Butea monosperma methanolic extracts exhibited the strongest antibacterial activity against L. acidophilus. Out of the four plant parts that were analyzed, the Butea monosperma stem extracts had the strongest antibacterial activity, followed by the flower and bark. Leaf does not show any inhibition against different bacterial strains. Butea monosperma has shown high antibacterial action against B. subtilis, S. aureus, S. typhi, and E. coli, in contrast to numerous co mmon drugs listed in Hexa g+7.
