Antimicrobial activity of mangrove plant AcrostichumSpeciosum

The antimicrobial activity of leaves, stem and root of Acrostichumspeciosumwas evaluatedusing different polarity extraction solvents namely n-hexane, ethyl-acetate and methanol.The samples were tested by disc diffusion and microdilution method against sixmicroorganisms after the extraction process f...
