Extracts of Artemisia annua were screened for their antimicrobial activity by well diffusion method and phytochemical screening. The antimicrobial activity of water, methanol, ethanol and acetone extract of the plant were studied using Staphylococcus aureus, Escheri-chia coli, Salmonella typhii, Streptococcus pneu-moniae as test microorganisms. The results reveal that the plant has shown significant activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia Coli, Salmonella typhii, Streptococcus pneumonia. Similarly, the methanol and water extract of plant has shown good inhibitory activity against all test microorganisms indicating that the plant can fight these organisms effectively.
