Antimicrobial activities of Malaysian medicinal plants / Amirah Raihan Abdul Ra'of

The aim of this study is to determine the antimicrobial activity of the six plants extracts from Rhizomes of Curcuma longa (turmeric/kunyit), leaves of Phyllanthus acidus (Malay gooseberry/cermai), leaves of Murraya paniculata (orange jessamine/kemuning), leaves of Cassia alata (candle bush/gelengga...
