Inhibitory activity, disk diffusion method, lavender, chamomile, plant extractsAbstract
The inhibitory effect of the extracts of lavender and chamomile was studied, followed by the Disk Diffusion Method (Bauer et al., 1966) on bacterial species E.coli, Klebsiella sp, and Staphylococcus epidermidis. The plants provided a source of compounds in medicines, great towards human health. However. The results of antimicrobial activity from all plants are shown in this experiment. Different concentrations of water extract, were used: 10-15-20 gm it was found in this study that plant extracts obtained by ethanol showed an activity where E. coli gave a response to the chamomile extract of chamomile rather than the water of both plants where the mean inhibition diameter respectively (1.9-2-2.4) The water extract of the lavender plant has an effective effect against Klebsiella inhibition (1.85-1.96-2.03) cm, whereas Staphylococcus epidermidis. Was the effect of the water extract of the lavender greater than the effect of the water extract of chamomile? The diameters of the three concentrations are (1.23_1.76_2) cm.
