ANTIBACTERIAL POTENTIAL OF ADHATODA VASICA AND BAUHINIA RACEMOSA AGAINST MULTI DRUG RESISTANT KLEBSIELLA SPECIES
Rahul Rajendra Shelke* and Dr. Meera Chavan
Abstract
Historically plants provided best source of drug compounds. In the
present study Adhatoda vasica and Bauhinia racemosa showed good
antibacterial activity against multi drug resistant Klebsiella species.
Well diffusion method was used for checking antimicrobial potential
of medicinal plants. Different type of Klebsiella species isolated from
urine sample on MacConkeys agar medium which were labeled as K1
to K10. These isolates identified with the help of VITEK-2 compact
and 16srRNA sequencing this sequence submitted on ENA, their
accession no. released. Drug resistant capacity of klebsiella species
was checked on VITEK -2 compact. Adhatoda vasica showed best
antibacterial activity against Klebsiella species and maximum species
showed resistant against Bauhinia racemosa.
Keywords: Adhatoda vasica, multi drug resistant, Bauhinia racemosa, Klebsiella spp., VITEK-2.
