Preparation of media: a. Proteus vulgaris - maconkeys agar high media + distilled water b. Staphylococcus aureus - Baired parker medium +distilled water c. Pseudomonas aeruginosa -Cetrimide agar + distilled water d. Klebsiella pneumonia - maconkeys agar + distilled water Antibacterial activity by agar well diffusion method a. Prepare agar plate media and the bacteria were spread on suitable media b. Preparation of disc on agar plate by using cork borer c. Addition of different extract in different disc and label them. d. The extract were showed inhibit the growth of bacteria e. The amount of space around the disc, indicate that the amount of lethality of extract around on the bacteria f. The effectiveness of antibacterial activity of both extract were determined by using measuring zone of inhibition in mm RESULT AND DISCUSSION: From the phytochemical Screening it was found that, the both plant contain different chemical constituent, secondary metabolites such as flavonoids, polyphenols, Terpenoids, alkaloids, , tannin which may be responsible for antibacterial activity. [...]the antibacterial activity of two plant extract were performed by agar diffusion method, against different four bacterial strain.
