Abstract

Solvent preparations of the different Hibiscus leaf have been mostly used in folk medicine for various purposes. In present study in this paper we have studied the antimicrobial activities of the leaf extract of Hibiscus rosa sinersis, H. aculeatus, H. sabdariffa, H. mutabillis and H. ficulness. We have evaluated the antimicrobial activity of the leaf extracts of all five Hibiscus sp. by agar well diffusion method. In the first screening all of the bacterial and fungal showed varying degrees of sensitivity to the Hibiscus leaf extract. Minimum antimicrobial activity was found by the petroleum either extracts. In among all four different solvent extract shows Ethyl acetate extract was found to be most favorable and suitable solvent for extraction and give maximum results in antimicrobial activities.
