Abstract
Medicinal plants are extensively used in traditional medicine to cure various infectious diseases in human. Plant based natural constituents can be derived from any part of the plant like bark, leaves, flowers, roots, fruits, seeds, etc. Medicinal plants are commonly used in the cure of diseases since times immemorial. In the present study methanol, chloroform and aqueous extracts of Rosa indica L. leaf were subjected for antimicrobial activity by well-diffusion method in the case of evaluate the antibacterial activity of Petroleum ether extract of Rosa indica L.extract against gram-positive cultures include B. cereus, B. subtilis. Gram-negative cultures include Vibrio cholera, Klebsiella pneumonia. The maximum antibacterial activity against Bacillus cereus (Zone of inhibition in mm 14.2), B. subtilis (zone of inhibition 13.1) and athanolic the lowest activity against Vibrio cholera (Zone of inhibition 12.6), Klebsiella pneumonia (Zone of inhibition 12.3). The gram positive bacteria more susceptible than the gram negative bacteria. The phytochemical characteristics of Rosa indica L. plants tested were summarized in the, it could be seen that, carbohydrates, cardiac glycosids, Flavonoids, Saponins (Foam test) Amino acids , Terpenoids, Phenols and Tannins were present in Rose indica plant extract.
Key words: Rosa indica L, bacterial strains, Antibacterial activity, phyto chemical analysis
