Some 68 plant extracts from 65 species belonging to 25 families were investigated for antibacterial activity against eight gram‐positive and gram‐negative bacteria. Of the 68 extracts, 64 (94.1%) exhibited inhibitory effects against one or more microorganisms. Furthermore, among the active extracts, 12 from 11 species exhibited a broad spectrum of activity. Discussion on the probable chemical components responsible for this activity is included.
