Keywords:
Marsilea quadrifolia, Antibacterial activity, Ethyl acetate, Water and Disc diffusion assayAbstract
Investigation was undertaken to evaluate antibacterial activity of the aquatic fern named as Marsilea quadrifolia against various gram positive and gram negative multi drug resistant bacteria through disc diffusion assay. The ethyl acetate extract of this plant is more effective in terms of antibacterial activity than water extract which indicates that ethyl acetate solvent extracted the active components from the plant parts in a more efficient way compared to water extract.
