Overview

Comparative study illustrates ginger root extract's antibacterial activity against Salmonella, suggesting natural alternatives can reduce microbial resistance.

Key Points

  • This research seeks to evaluate the antibacterial effectiveness of ginger root extract compared to trimethoprim against Salmonella.
  • Prepared alcoholic extract of ginger root.
  • Tested using the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) technique.
  • Evaluated antibacterial activity against four Salmonella isolates using agar plates.
  • Conducted chemical analysis to identify active ingredients using chromatography techniques.
  • Ginger extract exhibited significant antibacterial activity with MIC values ranging from 2 to 1024 µg/mL.
  • Inhibition zones ranged from 20-26 mm for ginger extract compared to trimethoprim.
