Free radical scavenging and antibacterial activities of Malaysian guttiferae plants

Guttiferae family is well known to have wide range of biological activities. The family is distributed throughout Malaysia, especially the genus of Calophyllum and Garcinia. Some of the species shows interesting bioactivity, such as Calophyllum lanigerum found in Borneo is exhibited anti- human immu...

The antibacterial activity of the extracts revealed that the n-hexane extract of the stem bark of C. canum, C. teysmanii and M. grandis have the highest antibacterial effect with same MIC value at 0.25 mg/ml on the Bacillus cereus.
