“…Similar to our findings Guo et al, [18] also reported the enhanced antibacterial activity of Ta-doped ZnO nanoparticles that showed pure hexagonal wurtzite structure of polycrystalline ZnO nanoparticles that showed enhanced antibacterial activity due to increased bioactive surface of hexagonal Ta-doped plates compared to control non Ta-doped ZnO nanoparticles. Habbal et al, [14] also reported the high in-vitro anti-P. aeruginosa activity of L. inermis which support our present findings. Similarly Al-Rubiay et al, [25] and Jeyaseelan et al, [20] demonstrated the antibacterial effect of alcoholic extract of Lawsonia inermis with MIC values of 0.5 -0.57 µg/ml.…”

In the present study, mehendi extract (Lawsonia inermis) was used for phytosynthesis of ZnO nanoparticles using 0.1 M Zn(NO 3 ) 2 as precursor under alkaline condition using NaOH with vigorous stirring for 2 h. ZnO NPs obtained were characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, XRD, SEM and TEM that showed change in shape and size. Hexagonal particles were formed due to plant extract relative to the rod shaped particles in absence of plant extract. Further the antibacterial property of ZnO NP synthesized by green method was more effective than those synthesized in absence of plant extract. The antibacterial activity study of both the synthesized ZnO nanoparticles reveals that the nanoparticles synthesized using mehendi extract are more effective than the particle synthesized without mehendi extract. Thus, the use of leaf extract as capping agent would improve the antibacterial property of ZnO nanoparticle. However, bacteriocidal effect of these nanoparticles varies with respect to the organism tested.

Objective: The present study aimed at evaluating the natural antimicrobial activity of Lawsonia inermis (L. inermis) and Indigofera tinctoria (I. tinctoria) against a reference and pathogenic clinically isolated strains compare with some antibiotics. Methods:The antimicrobial activity of Lawsonia inermis (red henna) and Indigo tinctoria (black henna) was evaluated against clinically isolated strains from urinary tract and wounds infected patients. The six tested strains namely were Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus fecalis, Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Candida albicans. The antimicrobial activity was evaluated by agar diffusion method and microplate dilution for measuring the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). An American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) of bacteria was used as a control for confirming the type of the isolated bacteria.Results: Both red and black henna showed variable antimicrobial activity against tested bacteria and C. albicans. Alcoholic and oily extracts were more effective than water. Staphylococcus epidermis was significantly affected with water extract of black henna (20±1.1) and red henna (11±0.5). Nigella sativa oil extract with black henna had showed significant synergism effects against some microorganisms as Enterococcus fecalis (40±1.5), P. aeruginosa (15±0.9) and Candida albicans (18±0.6). Conclusion:Black and red henna had antibacterial and antifungal activities. They exhibited synergistic effects when mixed with black seed oil.

“…The steadily increasing bacterial resistance to existing drugs is a serious problem, and therefore there is a direct need to search for new classes of antibacterial substances, especially from natural sources. Unlike synthetic drugs, antimicrobials of plant origin are not associated with side effects and have a great therapeutic potential to heal many infectious diseases (Chanda et al, 2010;Habbal et al, 2011).…”

Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA and MSSA) and Escherichia coli strains were isolated from the Clinical specimens such as pus, wound, urine, ear swabs and blood collected from the Health care centers at Lucknow city of Northern India. All strains were tested and detected as multi-drug resistant against penicillin, ampicillin, cefpdoxime, sulphadiazine, nalidixic acid, erythromycin and amoxicillin. Antibacterial activity of Syzigium cumini leaf extracts in various solvents was also determined. The efficacy of the extracts was found higher in petroleum ether and ethanolic solvents with the inhibition zone 8-24 mm than all other solvent extracts tested. Extracts of Syzigium cumini exhibited prominent activity against both the drug resistant strains of S. aureus and E. coli. Minimum inhibitory and minimum bactericidal concentrations of Syzigium cumini leaf extracts were also determined among the strains. MIC and MBC values varied from 1.56 to 25 mg/ml and 1.56 to 50 mg/ml among the tested strains. The combination of ampicillin with plant extracts exhibited a significant synergistic effects on growth of multidrug resistant strains of both genus tested. Our study thus suggests the use of this medicinal plant in the treatment of various diseases caused by drug resistant species of S. aureus and E. coli.
