ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY OF ALKALOIDS FROM SIDA ACUTA
Mathew George, Lincy Joseph and Anjitha Aravind*
Abstract Sida acuta is a shrub indigenous to pantropical regions. The plant is widely used for its various pharmacological properties. Among compounds of pharmacological interest occurring in the plant, are indoloquinoline alkaloids. The aim of the present study was to investigate the antibacterial activity of alkaloids of S. acuta. The alkaloids had a good antibacterial activity against the test microorganisms. In the agar-well diffusion assay, highest inhibition zone diameters were recorded with Gram-positive bacteria. Keywords: Quindoline, indoloquinolines, antibacterial, Sida acuta. [Full Text Article] [Download Certificate] |
