Implication

In vitro study shows antibacterial potential of Persea americana variants against Staphylococcus aureus, suggesting new treatment options.

Key Points

  • This research aims to assess the antibacterial properties of leaf extracts from different Persea americana variants against Staphylococcus aureus.
  • Conducted disk diffusion assay on four variants of Persea americana leaves.
  • Tested extracts at varying concentrations from 5 mg to 5 μg.
  • Evaluated antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and E. coli.
  • All four variants inhibited Staphylococcus aureus growth at 5 mg concentration.
  • Semil 2 variant demonstrated the highest antibacterial potential at lower concentrations.
  • No inhibitory effect was observed against E. coli for any variant.
